See it here first! PBS film preview of “The Eyes of Me” Thursday, Feb 25th , 10:30am-12pm, Tate Hall. Sponsored by the CPCC Libraries, the Diversity Committee, and Mobilize.org. The 1-hr film will be followed by a 30-minute discussion with Kris Shields, President of North Carolina Parents of Blind Children in Charlotte.

Adolescence can be a fraught time, when young people are dealing with a range of issues such as self-image, acceptance by peers, relations with the opposite sex, and achieving independence. The four teens in the film are coping with these issues while they are also trying to learn to make their way in the world without the benefit of full vision.

Headsets are available for those wishing to follow the film by audio description. Contact Vicky Tsai for advance arrangement at 330-6106 or vicky.tsai@cpcc.edu. Free snacks, drinks, and door prizes.
