[NFBMT] What do you do when you see a blind person?

I knew these were out of date, but I sent them anyway because it's always
interesting to ponder how far we have or have not come.

Hi all,

I would say this presentation is at least five to ten years old or more!  It
mentions the braille and speak as if this is the latest technology available!
Nothing wrong with a BNS but we are in a world of smart devices!  The only
thing new added is discriptive video notes were inserted!  I think we have
just as many articles and videos which may show a more up to date picture!
The stranger and the blind person seemed to hit it off immediately which
doesn't always happen!  I'd look around more!  I'm certain I've seen this
before!  I got link on the PC and IPad.

Is anyone else having problems viewing these links?  They work on my
computer, which of course doesn't mean anything.  LOL

If they don't work for you, and you feel so inclined, put "what do you do
when you see a blind person? YouTube" in a search field and see what comes
up.  Joy

Food for discussion.  And maybe some laughter.

Here's one that Bruce watched in graduate school.  Some of it is pretty
funny, some is pretty good, and some makes me cringe.  I think it was made in
the 1970s.

I haven't found one like this put out by the NFB yet, but I'm pretty sure
there is one.

Live the life you want

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.
