Keep an Online option for speech and debate.

Keep an Online option for speech and debate.

The Issue

During this pandemic Speech and Debate become more accessible to disabled folk due to being able to compete online from home. When tournaments go in person again many disabled folk will loose their platform to spread their message. This activity is about having a voice so let’s include disabled folks voice! There is no reason why we cannot have an online option in every tournament for disabled folk to compete and be zoomed in or submit a video. Lets keep speech and debate accessible! We ask that the NSDA makes this a part of this activity for now on.
