Leaders Present: A Chat with Ever Lee Hairston*



The Black Elected Leaders Work Group under the National Organization of
Blind Black Leaders (NOBBL) invites you to attend a chat with Ever Lee
Hairston, a leader in the Civil Rights Movement under Dr. King and later in
the National Federation of the Blind.

When: February 19, 2024

Time: 8 PM ET, 7 PM CT, 6 PM MT and 5 PM PA



February is Black History Month. It is a time to recognize, understand and
celebrate the contributions of Black Americans in the United States. During
the month of January, we observed the life and contributions of one of
America’s greatest men, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Next month, we will
celebrate Women’s history Month where we recognize the contributions of
the American woman. Ever Lee Hairston is a Black blind woman who through
her leadership and sacrifices, has demonstrated leadership in her
contributions to our country’s civil rights struggle for Black Americans
and blind Americans. She marched with Dr. King in the civil rights movement
of the early sixties and became a leader in the organized blind movement
when she joined the National Federation of the Blind in the late 1980s.

We invite you to join the Black Elected Leaders as we hear about Ms.
Hairston’s time in the Civil rights Movement and in the National
Federation of the Blind. We want to know what leadership skills she
developed during her time with Dr. King, and how did she apply those skills
in the blindness movement. How did she conquer discrimination that she
faced as a Black blind woman? What would she say to us today as we continue
our progress toward full and equal rights and opportunities in America?



Sincerely,

Denise Avant, 1st Vice President
