No. Ralph Sanders was president of the Federation in 1978. There
are folks on this list who when in the movement then who can better
speak of why Dr. Jernigan was not. If I remember correctly it was
for health reasons. Anyone wish to fill in the gaps in my memory?<br>
I would like to say one more thing about Mr. Sanders. In listening
to his speech it is obvious the leadership thought a lot of him at
the time. They referred to him as "our young president". It made
me very sad to hear that considering how things turned out.<br>

That makes sense, thank you! Just one clarification question: Mr.
Sanders was President of what? I'm pretty sure he wasn't the
National President, that was Dr. Jernigan from 1968 to 1986.

<br>
Chris,
<br>
I do not know all the criteria for a recording to be included on
the nfb
<br>
website. I'm sure it is a case by case basis. I do know the
reason the
<br>
1978 banquet address by Ralph Sanders is not included. Mr.
Sanders put
<br>
himself in the position of being an opponent of the Federation
some time
<br>
after he served as president. Taking this into consideration,
<br>
understand the speech itself is not by any means a great speech
and does
<br>
not further our cause by being posted. I suppose that is one
criteria
<br>
for inclusion on the national website. The recording has to
further our
<br>
cause. The national website is not a depository for all things
<br>
historical concerning the Federation. The library is. (I think)

I have a question for you since you work in the national center

Let me clarify. We do want to have the recordings in our
audiovisual

available through NFB.org is another question.

Hi Michael, go ahead and keep the tapes.
<br>
<br>
When I listen to them, the quality is very good.
<br>
<br>
I don't understand why the National Office wasn't interested in
them.
<br>
<br>
I hope the tapes were the originals.
<br>
<br>
Yes I will be at convention in Orlando, Florida.
<br>
<br>
See you then.

Kenneth,
<br>
You sent those tapes to me. I've done a little research on the
<br>
subject to refresh my memory and found the original thread that
led to
<br>
you sending me the tapes. There was an interest in hearing the
1978
<br>
Banquet address by Ralph Sanders. You stated you had a record of
it
<br>
and told anyone who wanted it to contact you. You then posted the
<br>
following:
<br>
"Hi Ryan, I just put my 12 inch record on to a cassette tape, and
I
<br>
will send it to Michael Freholm either tomorrow or Monday.
<br>
The second side of that record is where Kenneth Jernigan addressed
The
<br>
Brotherhood of Teamsters on August 15, 1978.
<br>
I used a small Cassette Recorder, and a Talkingbook Record player.
<br>
I also recorded Why I am a Federationist and Disability and
Visibility
<br>
By Kenneth Jernigan.
<br>
I believe both speeches were done in 1974.
<br>
Ken Chrane "
<br>
I made a digital recording of the Banquet Address and the speech
to
<br>
the Teamsters and, if memory serves, I sent a copy to RyanO. My
main
<br>
interst was of the Banquet speech. I just wanted to hear it and
so
<br>
did others but the National Office is in no way interested in
putting
<br>
this on the website and, thus, we will not be putting this up on a
<br>
Living History website. And even if we were, the sound quality is
not
<br>
very good. I made a digital recording of a tape recording of a 12
<br>
inch record. The recordings are not of the quality to be put up
on
<br>
the national website. As for the other two Jernigan speeches, the
<br>
quality wasn't good enough. Perhaps the national office could do
a
<br>
better job in making a digital copy than I.
<br>
I still have the tapes you sent me Ken and will bring them to
Orlando
<br>
and return them to you. if you are going to be there. I
apologize
<br>
for any misunderstanding concerning the final destination of these
<br>
recordings. I was interested in possibly putting them up on the
<br>
living history website once it's up and running but do not recall
<br>
saying I would get them put up on the national website. My
apologizes
<br>
again for any misunderstanding.
<br>
Best, Michael
<br>

Thanks for posting this Tina and thanks to all those who
responded. I
<br>
was planning on posting the same question tomorrow but you beat me
to
<br>
it. I was also hoping to announce some other stuff but I don't
have
<br>
confirmation yet.... Nevertheless, it's important that we don't
<br>
duplicate recordings (not that it will really hurt anything but it
<br>
would be a waste of resources.) and we need to make sure that
<br>
important things get recorded. If anyone has any suggestions in
this
<br>
matter please post them to the list.
<br>
The Living History meeting is scheduled for Sunday June 3 from 7
to
<br>
8:30. Hope to see you all there!
<br>
Have a safe trip,
<br>

This list has been almost dead over the past several months, so I

thought I'd get things rolling by asking what people plan to
record
<br>
for archive during the convention. I will be doing the Membership
<br>
committee meeting, as well as the Newsletter and Publications
<br>
committee. They're on separate nights this year, which is a
first.
<br>
Other than that, I'm wide open.
<br>
<br>
I also plan to do the Living History group meeting this year, as
usual.
<br>
<br>
I'm sure this has been brought up before, but what good is it when
<br>
people record all this stuff, but it only reaches the one who does
the
<br>
recordings and no one else? I'd like to get us thinking seriously
<br>
about establishing a web site where this great stuff can be
distributed.
<br>
<br>
Whatever you do, bring your mp3 players and voice recorders with
you
<br>
to Orlando, so we can add to our already rich collection. Let's
all
<br>
try to contribute something this year. Thanks.
