NFB Pledge

I pledge to participate actively in the efforts of the National Federation
of the Blind to achieve equality, opportunity, and security for the blind;
to support the policies and programs of the Federation; and to abide by its
constitution.

NFB One-Minute Message

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 CREATE OBSTACLES
BETWEEN BLIND PEOPLE AND OUR DREAMS. YOU CAN LIVE THE LIFE YOU WANT;
BLINDNESS IS NOT WHAT HOLDS YOU BACK.

Zoom Commands

*	Stop Notifications: If you are running JAWS 2020 you can use
Alt-Windows key-S to suppress Zoom notifications. If you are running an
earlier version of JAWS use JAWS key-space bar-S to invoke "Speech on
Demand". Use the same key combination to invoke full speech. On an iOS
device use a three-finger double tap to turn speech off. Perform a
three-finger double tap to re-enable speech. On a Mac you will need to
disable Voice Over using CMD-F5. Even with Voice Over off you can still use
keyboard commands in Zoom to mute/unmute yourself and raise/lower your hand,
Voice Over just won't speak. Use CMD-F5 to re-enable Voice Over.
*	Muting: Many meetings are muting all participants, but smaller
meetings are letting people mute and unmute themselves. On Windows use Alt-A
to mute/unmute. On Mac use SMD-Shift-A to mute/unmute yourself. On a dial in
number use *6 to toggle the option. On an iOS device the button is in the
lower left-hand corner. Double tap the button to switch the toggle. On
Windows, Mac and iOS there is a setting to always enter a meeting muted.  It
is not turned on by default. 
*	Raise/Lower Hand: To raise and lower your hand, on Windows Alt-Y. On
Mac Option-Y. On a dial in phone *9. On an iOS device double tap on the
"Participants" button in the lower right corner and scroll to the bottom.
There is a button (but is not labeled as a button in the most current
version) that says, "raise hand".  Double tap and it will switch to "Lower
hand". 
*	Participants List: To see Participants on Windows Alt-U. On Mac
CMD-U. On an iOS device the button is located in the lower right-hand
section of the screen. You will also see a "Raise Hand" button in the
"Participants" section on Mac and Windows if you forget the keyboard
command.
*	Chat: To chat. On Windows press Alt-H. On Mac press CMD-Shift-H. On
an iOS device find the "Participants" button to the left of the "More"
