style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>How much do low expectations impact our lives? Recently, I have worked with blind people in a couple of states where it is very clear that they are being conditioned by agencies serving the blind to settle for a bar that is lower than their talent, spirit, and potential should predict. It got me thinking about how strong the barrier is between artificially low expectations and a future full of unimagined opportunities.<span style='color:violet'> </span></span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>During the past few weeks the hashtag #KickingGlass has been making its way around in social media. It struck me that this is also a fitting hashtag for the work of the National Federation of the Blind over the past month</span>—<span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>kicking through the glass ceilings that place artificially low expectations on our participation in society. We secured a landmark victory in Ohio where an employer was artificially limiting people with disabilities by falsely using an outdated provision of the Fair Labor Standards Act to pay far below minimum wage. In Maryland, the appellate court for the fourth circuit upheld a previous victory giving all people with disabilities in Maryland the right to a secret, verifiable, absentee ballot. These big glass breaks were accompanied by smaller individual kicks that shattered low expectations faced by individuals. The barriers ranged from the low expectations of internship-placement specialists who denied a qualified blind dietician access to a required internship slot, to helping a blinded vet get the equal access needed at his university, to assisting newly blind people get connected with blind mentors and quality rehabilitation resources.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Many more blind people have the opportunity to pursue their dreams because of the artificial barriers through which we have already kicked. However, our experience is that there are still far too many barriers and that the strength, determination, and consistent effort of the National Federation of the Blind is needed to continue #KickingGlass. Please continue to join with us in our quest to knock down all of the artificial barriers on the road to freedom and to make our understanding of blindness the #RealNormal in today’s society.</span> <o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Sincerely,</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><img border=0 width=160 height=40 id="_x0000_i1027" src="https://nfb.org/sites/nfb.org/files/images/MAR_signature.jpg" alt="Graphic: Signature of Mark Riccobono"><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Mark A.

At these programs, you will collaborate with other students to solve problems that exist in developing countries. You will spend the week working on a team to engineer solutions to these problems. Your team will create proposals with accompanying models, which you will pitch to various stakeholders. After constructing life-size prototypes of your designs, you will test them in authentic settings. You will also have the opportunity to meet and collaborate with a number of engineers from across the country, some of whom happen to be blind. Throughout the program, students will work to demonstrate mastery of the engineering design processes, as well as engineering concepts such as prototyping, design viability, and data collection and analysis. This program will provide teens with the opportunity to hone their engineering skills—from technical knowledge, to problem-solving ability, to the understanding that through engineering one can improve other people’s quality of life. The program curriculum was developed by engineering educators and is aligned with both the Common Core State Standards and the Next Generation Science Standards.

This unique and effective event has been going on since the early 1970s and brings Federation members from across the country to speak directly with their elected officials in Congress about important legislative issues. But did you know that the NFB has had a presence in Washington, DC, almost since its inception in 1940? As early as the spring 1941 session of the Seventy-Sixth Congress, the Federation was sending representatives to lobby for or against bills that could drastically affect the lives of blind Americans and, in fact, lobbying with the federal government is one of the main reasons that the NFB was founded. The February issue of the <em><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Braille Monitor</span></em> featured an article by the tenBroek Library’s own Anna Kresmer, which details the early efforts of the NFB to lobby for changes in the Social Security Act during our organization’s first decade.

Even those of us who have been blind for a long time and use some of the latest smartphones, still frequently prefer having a timepiece independent from our gadget. The Independence Market carries <a href="http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4742&qid=1194755" target="_blank" title="Link to Braille and talking watches">a variety of Braille and talking watches</a> as well as <a href="http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4743&qid=1194755" target="_blank" title="Link to talking clocks">talking clocks</a>. </span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>The advantage of using a <a href="http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4744&qid=1194755" target="_blank" title="Link to Braille watch">Braille watch</a> is that it gives one a discrete way of telling the time, without being a disruption to others. The term Braille watch is actually a misnomer for a tactile watch. No knowledge of Braille is required to use such a watch; you just have to know how to interpret an analog watch face. The crystal on a Braille watch typically opens from the six o’clock position, so that the user can touch the hands. The face has tactile markings; usually the twelve o’clock position is labeled with a line or three dots arranged in a line or pyramid; the three, six, and nine o’clock positions are indicated with two dots; and the other five minute intervals are marked with one dot. The Independence Market carries both men’s and women’s Braille watches with either expansion or leather bands. The watches range from functional no-name brands to the Seculus (Swiss-made) wrist and pocket watches.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>We also carry the <a href="http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4745&qid=1194755" target="_blank" title="Link to Bradley tactile watch">Bradley tactile watch</a>. This unique timepiece is an innovative fashion watch that was designed with both the sighted and blind in mind. Instead of with traditional watch hands, time is shown by two ball bearings—the one on the face indicating minutes and the one on the side indicating hours. These two ball bearings are connected by magnets to a watch movement beneath the watch face. The magnets make it so that even if the ball bearings are moved when touched, they spring back to the correct time with a gentle shake of the wrist. The 1 1/2-inch watch face features distinct tactile markings at five-minute intervals. If you are interested in the Bradley watch, you should contact the Independence Market via phone, as we can offer you a better price than advertised online.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Many blind people prefer a <a href="http://nfb.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=4746&qid=1194755" target="_blank" title="Link to talking watch">talking watch</a>, because it can have more features.

These kiosks have become prevalent within the healthcare industry and are oftentimes inaccessible, forcing blind patients to share their private heaIth information with sighted strangers in order to enter the data and receive medical care.
