Going Blind Panel Video and Survey!
by PRESIDENT＠alumni.ecu.edu 21 Jul '20

21 Jul '20

Hi everyone, This is an opportunity to watch a panel discussion offered by an agency that does services for the blind and give your feedback. I shared this info with a few people a few days ago and apologize if you've seen it already. It may be a good opportunity for people with some understanding of the lived experiences of blind people and best practices in adjustment to blindness training to give feedback. This is one of the agencies that has no defined philosophy about blindness. There was a panel discussion based on a documentary, "Going Blind: Coming Out of the Dark About Vision Loss" on July 7, 2020. A video of the event with full transcript and closed captioning can be found on its sponsoring agency's website: https://www.asb.org/asbs-video-library/<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.asb.org%2fasbs-vide…>. For more information on Joseph Lovett, filmmaker, and the "Going Blind" film, please visit https://goingblindmovie.com/<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fgoingblindmovie.com%2f&…>. The sponsoring agency looks forward to hosting more events like this and would value your feedback. Here is a brief follow-up survey so that they can understand what makes programming effective: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/8NYYLPY Stay well, everyone, Justin Justin Mark Hideaki Salisbury he/him/his Phone: 808.797.8606 Email: President at Alumni.ECU.edu<mailto:President at Alumni.ECU.edu> LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/justin-salisbury ResearchGate: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Justin_Salisbury "Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot un-educate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore." Cesar Chavez
