[NFBP-Talk] Federation Philosophy and Reproductive Rights

[Justin Salisbury]

Hi everyone,

I want to share with everyone a piece that I was fortunate enough to publish in the March issue of the Braille Monitor.

I am hopeful that it will lead to meaningful reflection and discussion.

Some of us may have heard people say something like "I am a member of the National Federation of the Blind; therefore, I am 100 percent pro-life," or "I am a member of the National Federation of the Blind; therefore, I am 100 percent pro-choice." I contend that the Federation is not inherently pro-life or pro-choice.

Here it is:

Aloha,

Justin

"Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot un-educate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore."

Cesar Chavez
