<p><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">Join the conversation. As part of Meet the Blind Month, we are hosting weekly Twitter chats!

The chats will be each Wednesday at 2 p.m. ET and our hashtag is #MeetTheBlind. Here are the following topics by week:</span></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">October 7, Blindness and Additional Disabilities </span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">October 14, Blindness, Race, and Ethnicity</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">October 21, Blindness, Sexual Orientation, and Gender Identity</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">October 28, Blindness, Seniors, and Losing Vision Later in Life</span></span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">The questions will be posted on our website prior to the chat for review. We look forward to your participation. <a href="https://www.nfb.org/libraries/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=18619&qid=4223383" rel="nofollow" style="color:blue; text-decoration:underline">Learn more about Twitter chats</a>.</span></span></p>
<h2><span style="font-size:18pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">What’s a Twitter chat?</span></span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">A Twitter chat is a scheduled, organized topical conversation on the Twitter platform centralized around a specific hashtag. In every response during the Twitter chat, a designated hashtag is included. The chat isn’t only for answering the set questions but also to encourage, support, and assist others who are part of the chat. Tweet, reply, retweet. You can find the chat by searching for the hashtag at the scheduled time. <a href="https://www.nfb.org/libraries/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=18619&qid=4223383" rel="nofollow" style="color:blue; text-decoration:underline">Along with tips for the chat check out details on joining
Twitter</a>.</span></span></p>
