[NFBSF] You Are Invited! Listen to My Speech Saturday at 2:15 on Being Black and Blind in the NFB

[Bobbi Pompey]


I would like to invite you and anyone you know to listen to a panel presentation I will be a part of tomorrow. We will be speaking on the topic, “Not Blind to Color: Being Black & Blind in the Federation.” This panel is occurring during the national convention of the National Federation of the Blind. Over 7200 people across the globe have signed up for this convention. Most importantly, this is the first time in the NFB’s 80 year history that racism will be openly discussed openly on the national stage. I’m so honored to be one of the 5 voices that will be speaking from this unique intersection and I hope to hear from other marginalized groups at future conventions. 

My presentation is scheduled to start Saturday July 18that approximately 2:15PM Pacific time and I’d love it if you were there.
