4. One Minute Message, Janet Montoya, President 
           The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people because low expectations of blind people create obstacles between blind people and their dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
