[Nfbnet-members-list] March Braille Monitor Now Available

[David Andrews]

Read the March Monitor, www.nfb.org/braille-monitor, and see how the 
National Federation of the Blind helps to change people's 
lives.  Three examples are the articles "College Bound" by Meg 
Dowell, "Perspectives from a Student Musician" by Julie McGinnity and 
"Blind in Wild Nature" by Dr. Geerat Vermeij.  These articles also 
demonstrate the diversity and talent of our members.



Those who never had the privilege of getting to know Dr. Kenneth 
Jernigan will enjoy his article entitled "The Life of a Convention 
Chairman or Disneyland Visited".  Many who knew him will once again 
enjoy his wit and will marvel at his attention to detail.



Peggy Chong's article "Standing on Their Shoulders" not only presents 
information about her growth in the movement but also provides 
interesting insights into the early struggles that blind persons 
faced in getting our organization started.  As the March Monitor 
demonstrates, the National Federation of the Blind is definitely a 
people's movement.
