Braille Monitor
The Braille Monitor is the flagship publication of the National Federation
of the Blind. It covers the events and activities of the NFB, addresses the
issues we face as blind people, and highlights our members.
Distributed eleven times a year since 1957, the Braille Monitor:
* Offers a positive philosophy about blindness to both blind readers
and the public at large
* Serves as a vehicle for advocacy and protection of civil rights
* Addresses social concerns affecting the blind
* Discusses issues related to employment, education, legislation, and
rehabilitation
* Provides news about products and technology used by the blind
* To learn more, we invite you to read Dr. Kenneth Jernigan's 1993
article entitled, "Concerning History and the Braille Monitor."
