We respectfully disagree. Braille is still a proper name, and we recommend capitalizing Braille anytime it is referenced.
Did you know? The word 'braille' can only be capitalized when referring to Louis Braille, the inventor of the universal system of reading & writing for the blind and visually impaired, & at the beginning of a sentence. When referring to the system, 'braille' should be lowercase.
ALT On a braille book with a pair of eyeglasses on top background is a green block with a white text that reads "DID YOU KNOW?". Underneath this is a white block with a green text that reads "Braille can only be capitalized when referring to Louis Braille or at the beginning of a sentence."
Brad and Barbara Loos are proudly representing the National Association of Blind veterans at the veterans freedom music festival, antelope Park band shell area, Lincoln, Nebraska, today! If you are in the area, please stop by.

On this 80th Anniversary of the Fair Labor Standards Act, I believe that we should extend ALL of the FLSA workers rights to people with disabilities--end the legal unequal treatment! Share this if you are with me. #14cIsNotForMe #timeForTIME nfb.org/fair-wages
Over the last 80 years, working conditions have improved. But people with disabilities can still be segregated and paid less than the minimum wage. #timeforTIME #14CIsNotForMe
