Tomorrow, December 12, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., approximately 100 members and supporters of the National Federation of the Blind will conduct an informational picket at Amazon’s company headquarters located at 426 Terry Avenue N in the South Lake Union district. The protest is a response to a recent push by Amazon.com to put Kindle e-books, which are not accessible to blind students, into K-12 classrooms across the country. The rally could produce distracted driver slowing through the area.
