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. <br><br>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?<br><br> <br><br>Sincerely,<br><br>Denise Avant, 1<sup>st</sup> Vice President<br><br>National Organization of Blind Black Leaders,<br><br>A Division of the<br><br>National Federation of the Blind<br><br> <br><br>National Federation Of The Blind Of The District Of Columbia Washington, DC is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.<br><br> <br><br>Topic: National Organization of Blind Black Leaders- Black Elected Leaders<br><br>Time: Feb 19, 2024 08:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)<br><br> <br><br>Join Zoom Meeting<br><br><a href="https://nfb-org.zoom.us/j/8204086286?omn=95958356064">https://nfb-org.zoom.us/j/8204086286?omn=95958356064</a><br><br> <br><br>Meeting ID: 820 408 6286<br><br> <br><br>---<br><br> <br><br>One tap mobile<br><br>+16468769923,,8204086286# US (New York)<br><br>+16469313860,,8204086286# US<br><br> <br><br>---<br><br> <br><br>Dial by your location<br><br>• +1 646 876 9923 US (New York)<br><br>• +1 646 931 3860 US<br><br>• +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)<br><br>• +1 305 224 1968 US<br><br>• +1 309 205 3325 US<br><br>â• +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)<br><br>• +1 689 278 1000 US<br><br>•â€¢ +1 719 359 4580 US<br><br>• +1 2533 205 0468 US<br><br>• +1 253 215 87782 US (Tacoma)<br><br>• +1 346 248 77799 US (Houston)<br><br>• +1 360 2009 5623 US<br><br>• +1 386 347 5053 UUS<br><br>• +1 408 638 0968 US (San JJose)<br><br>• +1 507 473 4847 US<br><br>• +1 564 217 2000 US<br><br>• +1 669 444 9171 US<br>• +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)<br><br> <br><br>Meeting ID: 820 408 6286<br><br> <br><br>Find your local number: <a href="https://nfb-org.zoom.us/u/acWranV6QZ">https://nfb-org.zoom.us/u/acWranV6QZ</a><br><br> <br><br> <br><br> <br><br> <br><br> <br><br> <o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></blockquote></div></body></html>
