Hi Friends,
I sent this message from the AFB message boards to everyone who 
participated up front and behind the scenes to my Braille literacy 
series on American Chronicle and to my articles on Braille for Suite 
101. I also thought some of you might be interested or that I may have 
missed someone in the other mailing.

The following message comes from:
http://www.afb.org/message_board_replies2.asp?TopicID=6663&FolderID=3
Hope you will consider e-mailing this person and can help move the 
discussion forward.
Blessings,
Donna

BRAILLE LITERACY SUPPORT

Posted by magnoliaze on 8/31/2010 2:31:10 PM.

I am working on a documentary in support of Braille Literacy and am 
seeking a variety of subjects to share their stories.

We've already filmed the stories of some wonderful visually impaired 
children, but many of them had opportunities that not all people with 
vision loss
have. Now we are trying to find subjects who aren't as fortunate as well 
as experts and those who are passionate about the current state of 
Braille Literacy.

We'd like to discuss the biggest obstacles for literacy among the blind, 
to find out what needs to be done, and discuss in detail what people can 
do to
help. Finally, we are recruiting subjects that need assistance, people 
who don't have as much access to Braille or education. We want to tell 
YOUR stories
as a “call to action.”

If you, or someone you know, are interested please email 
brailledocumentary at gmail.com, and I'll forward you our credentials. I 
hope to hear from you soon!
