An American flag rendered in raised braille dots will soon sit at the St. Charles Parish library, allowing visually impaired visitors to experience the flag through touch. The Louisiana/Mississippi regional group of the Blinded Veterans Association will present the tactile braille American flag at the East Regional Library in Destrehan on Wednesday Oct. 8 at 10 a.m. The donated display features a braille version of the Pledge of Allegiance as well as the braille flag. “The BVA wants to ensure that everyone can understand what the American flag is, and with this braille flag, people with sight impairments are able to feel the flag and experience it in a way they might not have been able to before,” Pitz said. Members of the veterans’ group will speak about the significance of the flag and the history and mission of the BVA.
