FYI, this is very short notice, but below is an invitation to join Colorado
Federationists for a discussion.  It's  outlined in Kevin's e-mail below.
Apologies if you already got a copy of this one.  Actually, the NFB is
producing a lot of online learning and discussion opportunities.  Are you
getting invitations to these?  Would you like me to share them with the
NFB-MT listserv?

Tonight, Friday, May 29, we present a special Mountain Time at 5. What is
the Future of Blindness in America. What is the Future of the National
Federation of the Blind. What is the Future of the Randolph-Sheppard
Program. Tonight we want to hear from you. Tonight we will pose provocative
questions. Tonight we will also be using the polling feature of zoom for
folks who are not dialing in. But we will make sure everyone can
participate. 

So, let's start by asking everyone what they think life will look like for
blind people in ten years, 20 years, etc.  How much will technology
fundamentally change the nature of being blind?  How will sources of
artificial vision  and artificial intelligence  change the way we live?  A
key question, in the brave new world, what will the role of the NFB be?
What will be our relevance?  Will there be a need for the NFB?  Will we fade
away or shift our focus to more of providing services and doing more
international work? 

We do hope you will join us and invite others. Whether you are from Colorado
or across the Nation you are welcome and encouraged to join us on Zoom.
Encourage chapter members to join us.
