Jack has not been able to get in touch with National at this time & he will keep trying to get in touch with them. Jack read the questions about Newsline to the chapter members. We will still keep working on the Newsline awareness issue in Oregon. Members gave their impressions & thoughts about the Braille Monitor article “Blindness: Is the Public Against Us?” by Kenneth Jernigan April 2020 issue. Kirk suggested that we bring up more articles from the Braille Monitor as we read them, members will let Kirk know of articles that will be good for the chapter to have a discussion about it. Kirk adjourned the meeting.
