[stylist] Behind Our Eyes

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

I didn't think it provided much information, and it definitely didn't
have anything about the current anthology. It's unclear as to what the
exact intent of the nonprofit itself is about. Is it all about artistic
expressions by people with disabilities? Do they do any advocacy and/or
political work? They produce Magnets and Ladders and the anthology, but
what exactly makes them a nonprofit, and why apply for a nonprofit? I
think they also have a radio show online but saw nothing about this on
the website.

Ashley,
As I understand it, Behind Our Eyes  is a journal  of writing
contributed by blind people -- us telling our own stories. The  first
edition came out 
years
ago (2007, I think), and that one is on NLS's  BARD site. They recently
took submissions for a second edition, which is  apparently out, though
there doesn't seem to have been much done yet to  notify the
contributors or put 
it
into an accessible format. It is put  together by the folks who put out
Magnets & Ladders, which is an online  magazine featuring the work of
people with disabilities. The group is a  registered 501(c)(3)
nonprofit. HTH, Donna

And  what is behind our eyes? Is this just a book or more?

Hi All,
I visited the Behind Our Eyes website and couldn't find  any indication
that the new book is out. I Googled it and the first edition  was there
on 
Amazon,
but I haven't found the one that Lynda and Myrna saw.  So, I wrote to
them, telling them of our discussion today and that Bridgit  wants to
acknowledge the contributors in Slate & Style. I'll let you  know if I
hear  anything. Donna _______________________________________________
