[Ohio-talk] Good news for theater goers

[barbara.pierce9366 at gmail.com]

I doubt that this is a Federationist. I would expect the lawyer to be Scot LaBarre if it were since he is in Denver as well. We mostly stay away from entertainment suits since we are looking for president-setting decisions that will aid lots of blind guys. I probably see more theater in a year than most NFB members, but I want our funds to go for suits that will make a difference in people’s lives.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
