National Coming Out Day recognizes the individual journeys part of the LGBTQ community. What better way to recognize the pride and how far the journey has taken us then by talking with Blind Pride International members and allies. BPI turned 20 this year, and members join Sunday Edition to talk about why it is important to remember the strides so many before us have taken to make the world a safe and accepting place. We will also talk about the importance of being able to COME out and live proudly.
Halloween closes out the month of October, but the month opens up celebrating the beauty, diversity, and richness of Hispanic Culture. After a well-respected IRC Luncheon presentation and the beautiful ACB-Voices article celebrating Hispanic Heritage, Gabriel Lopez Kafati brings members of that wonderful panel we met at convention, as well as other proud Hispanic friends in a roundtable celebratory conversation. Gabriel and friends will share the unique aspects of being blind or visually impaired persons living in the US. If you have not had the chance to read Gabriel’s article, head to www.acbvoices.org and join so you can enjoy all the wonderful member stories on ACB Voices.
