NEED 2 LINES INTRO ABOUT DEAF CULTURE..
HISTORY 2 LINES
By definition, Deaf culture refers to language, values, beliefs, behaviors, and customs shared by Deaf persons. From the above definition, one may wonder on the difference between “deaf” and “Deaf.” The word “deaf” signifies pathology, which is the clinical term employed in referring to an individual with hearing inability or impairment. On the other hand, the word “Deaf” refers to a cultural identity for individuals who identify themselves as members of the Deaf culture. The members of the Deaf culture use American Sign Language (ASL) in communication.
Currently, the major issue that is faced by the Deaf culture is the employment of technology as a hearing aid. Mainly, members of the Deaf culture have opposed the use of cochlear implants as hearing aid for deaf children. Their main point of argument is that the introduction of hearing aids will divert the children away from the Deaf culture, thus threatening the existence and the procreation of the culture and identity of the Deaf culture.
Deaf culture has several personalities that have become the role models of the culture. One of the examples is Dr. I. King Jordan a Deaf professor in Gallaudet University, who was the first Deaf individual to be a University president in the United States. Dr. I. King Jordan was appointed the president of Gallaudet University after Deaf students protested pointing out that it was time for their voices to be heard and represented. This took place in 1988. Marlee Matlin is also another member of the Deaf culture who has proven that being Deaf is not a disability. She has been nominated for several Oscar awards. (MAKE IT SHORTER)
Generally, the members of the hearing society perceive hearing as a disability. This is evidenced by the fact that whenever a deaf individual makes a breakthrough in any aspect of life, the members of the deaf hearing society view it as an overcoming of a great obstacle. For instance, the fact that Marlee Matlin can lip-read and talk makes members of the hearing culture to admire her largely. To ensure integration with the hearing members and bridging the communication gap between the Deaf individuals and the hearing individuals, I believe that the hearing individuals should learn the American Sign Language.

Interview Questions for Deaf subculture
I. Who or what is the subculture?
The Deaf and Hard of Hearing Community is culturally diverse. Regardless of our diversity, we have an ingrained connection from experiencing societal, social, economic, and system oppression. Being Deaf or Hard of Hearing, we have to overcompensate for hearing people, the majority society.
· In your own words, what is Deaf Subculture mean?
As state.

Chapter 19 Reading:Working with Deaf Clients: An Interview with Valentino Vasquez and Johanna Larson
19-1Our Interviewees
19-1
Valentino Vasquez, MA, is a third-generation Latino who was born deaf in a Spanish-speaking extended family. His wife is deaf and their two children are hearing. As a child, he attended a deaf and hard-of-hearing program within a mainstream public school and attended Gallaudet University for several years. He teaches American Sign Language (ASL) and Deaf Culture courses in the Communication Disorders and Sciences program at the University of Oregon. He is involved with organizations supporting the Deaf community, both on-campus and off.
Johanna Larson, MS, is a native ASL speaker whose second language is English. She is the eldest hearing daughter of profoundly deaf parents in an extended Northern European American family with many other deaf members. Her father became deaf from spinal meningitis at age 3. Her parents met at Gallaudet University. She teaches basic linguistic principles of ASL, as well as Deaf Culture and Community Studies in the Communication Disorders and Sciences program at the University of Oregon.
19-1aThe Interview
Question:
Would you give a brief overview of “Deaf Culture,” including your participation and relationship to Deaf culture?
Vasquez:
This really relates to language as well as identity, including values, perceptions, and beliefs, as well as social customs. In Deaf culture, the language is ASL—using a manual communication as opposed to a spoken language communication. I participate in Deaf culture through the Oregon Association of the Deaf, Oregon Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf, and socializing with members of the Deaf community. Sometimes Jo and I will host Deaf events, such as performers or speakers. We reach out to the Deaf community and invite them to attend these events, and that becomes part of our Deaf community and therefore our Deaf culture.
One example of Deaf culture would be social customs. For example, when an event is over, people often notice that Deaf people stay well after closing hours. The lights will go off and people will say, “You all need to leave,” and Deaf people tend to stay, whereas hearing people will leave on time. Deaf people often will go out of the building, but then we’ll stand outside under the street lights and continue the conversations. It’ll whittle down until the last person is there. That’s a really big part of Deaf culture.
I’m involved with the Deaf community here in Oregon with a few organizations that support the Deaf, for example, the Oregon Association for the Deaf (OAD) and the Oregon Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf (ORID). Here on campus at the University of Oregon, I’m involved with the Disability Studies Advisory Board, which advises and suggests courses that can be used for a Disability Studies minor. The ASL sequence and the ASL culture course is part of that minor.

The Global Village
Thinking of the world close up, as if it were a village of one hundred people, forces us to confront what we mean we say “we”.
…How often does our we come to include people of other faiths, other nations, other races? How often does our we link rather than divide? Our relations with the “other” may move through a number of phases. First we talk about them—an objective “other.” Then perhaps we talk to them, or more personally, we talk to you. And finally, we all talk with one another about us, all of us. This is the critical stage to which our…dialogue must take us if we are to be up to the task of creating communication adequate for an interdependent world.
If the world was a village of 100 people,
In the village would be:
57 Asians
14 Africans
12 Europeans
6 North Americans
7 Latino Americans (Central and South Americans)
3 Australians/Oceanians
1 Caribbean Islander
There would be:
33 Christians
22 Muslims
15 Hindus
4 Chinese Folk Religionists
6 Buddhists
6 Other Religions
14 Atheists or Nonreligious
If the world were a global village of 100 people, one third of them would be rich or of moderate income, two thirds would be poor.
Of the 100 people, 5 of them would be U.S. Americans. These 5 would have over a third of the village’s entire income, and the other 95 would subsist on the other two thirds.
Of the 100 residents, 47 would be unable to read, and only one would have a college education.
About 35 would be suffering from hunger and malnutrition, at least half would be homeless or living in substandard housing.
How could the wealthy live in peace with their neighbors? Surely they would be driven to arm themselves against the other 95, perhaps even spend as U.S. Americans do, about twice as much per person on military defense as the total income of two thirds of the villagers.
The casual we for most of us does not include the 50 percent hungry, the 60 percent in shantytowns, and the 70 percent illiterate. Most of us construct our we without including them. Thinking of the world close up, as if it were a village of one hundred people, forces us to confront what “we” really means.

The Deaf Culture: Is it Really a Culture at All
Carol Padden has defined Culture as a set of learned behaviors of a group of people who have their own language, values, rules of behavior, and traditions. (1988)
Culture results from a group of people coming together to form a community around shared experience, common interests, shared norms of behavior, and shared survival techniques. Such groups as the deaf seek each other out for social interaction and emotional support.
The essential link to Deaf Culture among the American deaf community is American Sign Language. This community shares a common sense of pride in their Culture and language. There exists a rich heritage and pride in the ability t.

Young and the Restless
Week 11: Couples Therapy Movie Experience & Paper (28 points)
Couples Therapy Movie/TV Experience & Analysis Paper (Due week 11): 28 points
Couples Therapy Movies Experience & Analysis Paper based is based on the UCLA Marriage Enrichment Program & Happily Ever After The Movies & Relationship Study (A research study that is being conducted by Professor Ronald D. Rogge from the University of Rochester’s Department of Clinical and Social Sciences in Psychology) as well as the “PAIR Program” Promoting Awareness and Improving Relationships with Movies, my experience as a LMHC, LPC and LMFT Clinical Supervisor, Prepare/Enrich Certified Marital Counselor, Certified Supreme Court Mediator, and Certified Parent Coordinator.
http://www.courses.rochester.edu/surveys/funk/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
“A recent study at UCLA of Couples after the first 3 years of marriage (Roggie, et al., 2014) suggested that couples felt enriched by watching movies together and then “engaging in relationship focused” discussions after each movie. In these conversations the couple would discuss how their relationship was similar to different from the intimate relationship portrayed in each movie.’
This is a self-growth and Movie/TV analysis experience activity. Ideally doing this with a partner would be fun however not required. You can do this alone and base it on a relationship you had or one you hope to have or your family. It is not important to disclose if it is your relationship that you are using if you do not want to however be consistent with who you are using in your reflections.
The best approach to this assignment is to pick a show or a movie and watch it the beginning of the term and then at the end unless you choose a TV show to “binge” watch as part of this class or over the 3 months of class to immerse yourself into the show and couples you will be assessing and exploring in this project and take notes based on the assessment questions each time you watch the movie/show.
You will be looking at the following objectives for the couple:
• Explore strength and growth areas
• Strengthen communication skills
• Identify and manage major stressors
• Conflict resolution abilities
• Develop a more balanced relationship
• Explore family of origin issues
• Discuss financial planning and budgeting
• Establish personal, couple and family goals
• Understand and appreciate personality differences
Your Task (Cut and Paste these questions into a WORD document and create a template to use while watching movies/TV shows of your choice):
1) Pick 1 movie or “binge” watch a TV show (at least 4-6 episodes) related to Couples and Family.
2) Answer the following questions in a journal format or paper if you choose referencing the TV show/movies you watch, your text and other Couple and Family Therapy resources you use to support your thoughts/ideas.
1. What movie/TV shows did you watch? List.
You may have seen how financial news outlets provide real-time .docxrosemarybdodson23141
You may have seen how financial news outlets provide real-time financial market reporting. They often produce stock-market news feeds for traders; these news feeds include a stock chart. The stock chart may include different filters that allow you to see how the stock is performing today or has performed over one or more years.
There are many factors that will influence pricing that can’t be controlled or predicted accurately. The approaches used to value stocks (determine what the stock is truly worth) are usually theoretical. You should consider what drives stock prices and why.
For this discussion, first go to Mergent Online. Find the pricing chart under the “Company Details” tab, then click on

for your selected company. This is the company you have selected for your Project Two assignment. Filter the time period to one year.
In your initial post, address the following:
Discuss how the stock for your company is trending. Explain why the stock is in either an uptrend or downtrend.
Discuss some of the factors, including environmental, sustainable, and governance (ESG) factors, that you believe have impacted the stock performance and why.
Convince your peers to either invest in your chosen company or to not invest in the company. Explain your reasoning.
In your response posts to at least two peers, discuss the following:
Do you agree with your peer’s argument to either invest or not invest in their company? Explain why or why not, making sure to also include information not previously shared by your peer

Discuss how the stock for your company is trending. Explain why the stock is in either an uptrend or downtrend.
Tesla's stock has a positive trend over the past year. The stock has ranged from a low of $187.06 a year ago to a high of $883.09 on January 26, 2021 (Yahoo, 2021a). Tesla's shares have skyrocketed more than 20,000% since it went public in 2010, with its price rising more than 700% over the last year (Levin, 2021). This growth has made Tesla the most valuable car company in the world. There are many reasons for this epic growth. After years of not turning a profit for years, Tesla has finally shown a profit for the last 6 quarters. Tesla also beat estimates by producing more than 500,000 vehicles and selling its fifth vehicle, Modle Y, ahead of schedule (Levin, 2021). In addition, Tesla was added to the S&P 500 on November 16th, 2020, which helped the share price spike. These are the main drivers of the success of Teslas stock over the past 12 months. Another positive trend that has factored into the growth of Tesla's stock is the growing demand for EV stocks in general. Tightening emission regulations and the government's continued push towards renewable energy have also help Tesla's shares rise.

The class of 20 students is divided into two teams, having 10 students in each team. The teacher makes two columns on the board for team A and team B. Teacher points out, Yesterday in our history class we studied about the civil rights movement I hope you have well-prepared that topic. Let’s start an informal quiz based on yesterday’s topic. Are you guys ready? Students say, “Yes”! Teacher starts asking questions. Team A! Which sports Jackie Robinson played? Students raised their hands. Robert? Can you give the answer? Robert says soccer. Teacher appreciating Robert’s effort says very good Robert and write 10 under the column of Team A. Next question for Team B, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. went to the college to become? Students raise their hands. James, can you answer? James says, “Minister”. Teacher appreciates the attempt but the answer is not correct. Ok! Now, what you guys think what was the main contribution of Abraham Lincoln?Timothy raised his hand and replied, he brought freedom and abolish slavery. Rosie raised her hand and replied, he ran the country being a president of the country. Teacher says, when we freedom was attained by the African American it was not solely due to Abraham Lincoln. Who played the actual role? Joseph replies, African Americans themselves. Teacher appreciated Joseph’s answer saying absolutely right. No leader can bring freedom from slavery or racism until its people are themselves not ready to put their efforts. Nation needs to be united to get rid of inequality.

Young and the Restless
Week 11: Couples Therapy Movie Experience & Paper (28 points)
Couples Therapy Movie/TV Experience & Analysis Paper (Due week 11): 28 points
Couples Therapy Movies Experience & Analysis Paper based is based on the UCLA Marriage Enrichment Program & Happily Ever After The Movies & Relationship Study (A research study that is being conducted by Professor Ronald D. Rogge from the University of Rochester’s Department of Clinical and Social Sciences in Psychology) as well as the “PAIR Program” Promoting Awareness and Improving Relationships with Movies, my experience as a LMHC, LPC and LMFT Clinical Supervisor, Prepare/Enrich Certified Marital Counselor, Certified Supreme Court Mediator, and Certified Parent Coordinator.
http://www.courses.rochester.edu/surveys/funk/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
“A recent study at UCLA of Couples after the first 3 years of marriage (Roggie, et al., 2014) suggested that couples felt enriched by watching movies together and then “engaging in relationship focused” discussions after each movie. In these conversations the couple would discuss how their relationship was similar to different from the intimate relationship portrayed in each movie.’
This is a self-growth and Movie/TV analysis experience activity. Ideally doing this with a partner would be fun however not required. You can do this alone and base it on a relationship you had or one you hope to have or your family. It is not important to disclose if it is your relationship that you are using if you do not want to however be consistent with who you are using in your reflections.
The best approach to this assignment is to pick a show or a movie and watch it the beginning of the term and then at the end unless you choose a TV show to “binge” watch as part of this class or over the 3 months of class to immerse yourself into the show and couples you will be assessing and exploring in this project and take notes based on the assessment questions each time you watch the movie/show.
You will be looking at the following objectives for the couple:
• Explore strength and growth areas
• Strengthen communication skills
• Identify and manage major stressors
• Conflict resolution abilities
• Develop a more balanced relationship
• Explore family of origin issues
• Discuss financial planning and budgeting
• Establish personal, couple and family goals
• Understand and appreciate personality differences
Your Task (Cut and Paste these questions into a WORD document and create a template to use while watching movies/TV shows of your choice):
1) Pick 1 movie or “binge” watch a TV show (at least 4-6 episodes) related to Couples and Family.
2) Answer the following questions in a journal format or paper if you choose referencing the TV show/movies you watch, your text and other Couple and Family Therapy resources you use to support your thoughts/ideas.
1. What movie/TV shows did you watch? List.
You may have seen how financial news outlets provide real-time .docxrosemarybdodson23141
You may have seen how financial news outlets provide real-time financial market reporting. They often produce stock-market news feeds for traders; these news feeds include a stock chart. The stock chart may include different filters that allow you to see how the stock is performing today or has performed over one or more years.
There are many factors that will influence pricing that can’t be controlled or predicted accurately. The approaches used to value stocks (determine what the stock is truly worth) are usually theoretical. You should consider what drives stock prices and why.
For this discussion, first go to Mergent Online. Find the pricing chart under the “Company Details” tab, then click on

Discuss how the stock for your company is trending. Explain why the stock is in either an uptrend or downtrend.
Tesla's stock has a positive trend over the past year. The stock has ranged from a low of $187.06 a year ago to a high of $883.09 on January 26, 2021 (Yahoo, 2021a). Tesla's shares have skyrocketed more than 20,000% since it went public in 2010, with its price rising more than 700% over the last year (Levin, 2021). This growth has made Tesla the most valuable car company in the world. There are many reasons for this epic growth. After years of not turning a profit for years, Tesla has finally shown a profit for the last 6 quarters. Tesla also beat estimates by producing more than 500,000 vehicles and selling its fifth vehicle, Modle Y, ahead of schedule (Levin, 2021). In addition, Tesla was added to the S&P 500 on November 16th, 2020, which helped the share price spike. These are the main drivers of the success of Teslas stock over the past 12 months. Another positive trend that has factored into the growth of Tesla's stock is the growing demand for EV stocks in general. Tightening emission regulations and the government's continued push towards renewable energy have also help Tesla's shares rise.

Teacher appreciates the attempt but the answer is not correct. Ok! Now, what you guys think what was the main contribution of Abraham Lincoln?Timothy raised his hand and replied, he brought freedom and abolish slavery. Rosie raised her hand and replied, he ran the country being a president of the country. Teacher says, when we freedom was attained by the African American it was not solely due to Abraham Lincoln. Who played the actual role? Joseph replies, African Americans themselves. Teacher appreciated Joseph’s answer saying absolutely right. No leader can bring freedom from slavery or racism until its people are themselves not ready to put their efforts. Nation needs to be united to get rid of inequality.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. NEED 2 LINES INTRO ABOUT DEAF CULTURE..
HISTORY 2 LINES
By definition, Deaf culture refers to language, values, beliefs,
behaviors, and customs shared by Deaf persons. From the above
definition, one may wonder on the difference between “deaf”
and “Deaf.” The word “deaf” signifies pathology, which is the
clinical term employed in referring to an individual with
hearing inability or impairment. On the other hand, the word
“Deaf” refers to a cultural identity for individuals who identify
themselves as members of the Deaf culture. The members of the
Deaf culture use American Sign Language (ASL) in
communication.
Currently, the major issue that is faced by the Deaf culture is
the employment of technology as a hearing aid. Mainly,
members of the Deaf culture have opposed the use of cochlear
implants as hearing aid for deaf children. Their main point of
argument is that the introduction of hearing aids will divert the
children away from the Deaf culture, thus threatening the
existence and the procreation of the culture and identity of the
Deaf culture.
Deaf culture has several personalities that have become the role
models of the culture. One of the examples is Dr. I. King Jordan
a Deaf professor in Gallaudet University, who was the first Deaf
individual to be a University president in the United States. Dr.
I. King Jordan was appointed the president of Gallaudet
University after Deaf students protested pointing out that it was
time for their voices to be heard and represented. This took
place in 1988. Marlee Matlin is also another member of the
Deaf culture who has proven that being Deaf is not a disability.
She has been nominated for several Oscar awards. (MAKE IT
SHORTER)
Generally, the members of the hearing society perceive hearing
as a disability. This is evidenced by the fact that whenever a
2. deaf individual makes a breakthrough in any aspect of life, the
members of the deaf hearing society view it as an overcoming
of a great obstacle. For instance, the fact that Marlee Matlin can
lip-read and talk makes members of the hearing culture to
admire her largely. To ensure integration with the hearing
members and bridging the communication gap between the Deaf
individuals and the hearing individuals, I believe that the
hearing individuals should learn the American Sign Language.

Interview Questions for Deaf subculture
I. Who or what is the subculture?
The Deaf and Hard of Hearing Community is culturally diverse.
Regardless of our diversity, we have an ingrained connection
from experiencing societal, social, economic, and system
oppression. Being Deaf or Hard of Hearing, we have to
overcompensate for hearing people, the majority society.
· In your own words, what is Deaf Subculture mean?
As stated above
3. · How do you meet other users of ASL?
Today American Deaf and Hard of Hearing community are
highly diversed culturally and lingustically. In recent years, the
American hearing society is slowly accepting the Deaf
community through historical transitions. During 1880’s a
conference took place at Milan Italy Sign Language was
officially internationally banned. Deaf community became
severely oppressed as a minority group. Many were not allowed
to work as teachers at the school for the deaf, institutionalized,
not allowed to have children or inherit, and viewed inept to
function in society. Milan Conference empowered the hearing
community to economically, socially, culturally and
linguistically oppress the deaf community. Their voice was lost
until the Civil Rights movement during the 1960’s.
Recognition of the legitimacy of ASL was achieved by William
Stokoe, a linguist who arrived at Gallaudet University in 1955
when this was still the dominant assumption.[23] Aided by the
civil rights movement of the 1960s, Stokoe argued
for manualism, the use of sign language in deaf education.[23]
HYPERLINK
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Sign_Language" l
"cite_note-27" [24] Stokoe noted that signed language shares
the important features that oral languages have as a means of
communication, and even devised a writing system for
ASL.[23] In doing so, Stokoe revolutionized both deaf
education and linguistics.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Sign_Language#History
)
In the past, we had Deaf Clubs at pizza places before internet
days. Deaf community members work in hearing environments
and would attend to deaf clubs to be connected culturally and
linguistically. Our gatherings provide us a safe haven without
defining our culture or language. During the 1960’s, rubella
epidemic impacted pregnant women and gave birth to millions
of deaf and hard of hearing babies. This significantly impacted
4. educational approach by establishing mainstreamed public
hearing schools for deaf and hard of hearing children. Some
mainstreamed deaf children were taught Sign Exact English
(SEE) by a hearing educator. Some mainstreamed schools
forbid Sign Language and taught speech only. Other
Mainstreamed schools taught Total Communication approach,
includes Sign Language with English syntax and speech. It took
time for the generational ASL Deaf community members to
accept variety of mainstreamed deaf and hard of hearing
community members.
From the 1980’s until today, computer revolution has
significantly impacted the social realms for the Deaf and Hard
of Hearing community by allowing access to texting, video
phone, Facebook and other technology access to effectively
communicate with hearing people and among other Deaf
community members. The need to have Deaf Clubs slowly
disappeared.
· How well does ASL work to let you communicate?
I was born Deaf because of German Measles/Rubella. My
mother had Rubella while she was pregnant with me. I have no
brothers and sisters. My mother did not find out about my
deafness until I was three years old. She took me to several
doctors and all of them informed her I was simply “slow”.
One day she dropped me off at a daycare for a few hours. When
my mother came back to pick me up, a lady at the daycare told
my mother I am deaf. She had deaf family members. My
mother took me to an audiologist. The audiologist verified I am
deaf. She ordered hearing aids. These hearing aids had huge
ear molds attached with wire cord to a large rectangle box. She
came up to me with a beach ball and said, “Ball”. I was able to
repeat the word. It was the first time I heard a word. I did not
know I the name and object were connected. It took me seven
to eight years to put sentences together and have the ability to
5. communicate. I had speech therapy from the age of three until
sixteen years old. My parents never learned Sign Language. I
use speech to communicate with my parents. This is normal for
90% of hearing parents who have deaf or hard of hearing
children do not learn Sign Language.
I went to a mainstreamed school that was initially closed classes
for the deaf and hard of hearing only. I learned Signed Exact
English (SEE) and talk at the same time. This was invented by
a hearing parent for deaf children to learn the English syntax.
It was completely different from ASL. In reality, we deaf kids
would not use SEE during recess. We invented our own Signs
to naturally fit us.
During recess a large group of deaf kids, like myself, would go
play with other hearing children. It was very difficult the first
few years because we were the first group of kids being
mainstreamed. We were not accepted by the norm society. In
fact, in Jr. High School, my group of deaf friends was so
ashamed to use Sign Language publicly. They wanted to be
accepted by hearing kids so badly. I was so upset with my deaf
peers for refusing to sign because it is absolutely necessary for
us to communicate! In Jr. High, for the first time, we were
fully mainstreamed with hearing students. It was an extremely
difficult time with the realization that we were behind with
English, Math and with all subjects that were taught by hearing
teachers who never had Deaf students. I personally studied day
and night to catch up with hearing students educationally. I
failed my first semester and did not understand why. My
mother advocated for me working with the hearing
mainstreamed teachers. My parents never learned Sign
Language. However, my mother made sure I retained good
education.
In High School, my parents moved to Northern California to a
special education school that did not have Sign Language
6. interpreters. I sat in front of all of my High School classes to
grasp what the teacher was talking about. After class and after
school I would meet with all of the teachers and review with
them what was discussed. I had an excellent Special Education
Teacher who was a role model to me by teaching me study skills
and believing in me to be able to succeed in whatever I do! I
was taking college preparation courses.
I was accepted to a private college and attended that college for
two years without an interpreter. I thought I could pursue my
college education without a Sign Language interpreter. I found
out I could not do so. I transferred to California State
University of Northridge at the age of 20. This opportunity
opened up a whole new world for me. I was back with my
people! Deaf and Hard of Hearing from all over the world
attended an orientation. All of us are from various backgrounds
depending on how our parents raised us. Many were taught Oral
communication only (speech only), SEE signers (like myself),
Total Communication using ASL with English order and ASL.
Needless to say, it was an absolute cultural shock for me to be
surrounded by so many Deaf people and be accepted for who I
am. I did not have positive Deaf role model growing up. It was
absolutely phenomenal to see Deaf people as adults, same age
as me and start learning ASL! Initially it was very difficult to
understand the Sign Language interpreters because they were
only using ASL. Eventually and quickly in time through
socialization with my people, I was able to grasp ASL and
utilize ASL interpreters effectively for all of my college
courses. It was a wonderful opportunity to attend parties,
various Deaf dances and gatherings without any struggles as a
whole. With the terrific service and social support, I graduated
with a B.A. in Liberal Arts to become a teacher.
Culturally, we wave or tap on each other’s shoulders to get each
other’s attention. In addition if the floor is wood, we pound our
7. feet to get the other person’s attention. We turn off and on the
lights to get a group of people or a friend’s attention to Sign
whatever we want to convey. What is culturally ingrained for
all Deaf and hard of hearing people, we pay attention to facial
and body language which conveys a lot of information without
words. We also pay attention to our surroundings based on
what we see, not what we hear. By associating with my people,
we understand and share common experience with our struggles
in the hearing society on wide variety of levels with hearing
family members, social services, school systems and any other
hearing systems.
During the 1990’s the Deaf community became extremely upset
about cochlear implants because the concept of hearing parents
want their deaf children to become hearing. The medical field
was emphasizing to the parents their children will become
hearing. The deaf community perceives it as trying to force a
black child to become a white child. As time passed, deaf
community members now have cochlear implants. There were
some failures because many have been deaf for so long.
However, majority of them have benefited from the surgery. A
deaf friend who is married to a deaf man who was raised by the
school for the deaf, have two deaf children. Their children
when they were 9 months old received cochlear implants. Their
language flourished because they have access to Sign Language
and speech environment. The deaf community looked down at
this family for implanting their deaf children. It depends on the
deaf or hard of hearing child’s hearing loss, area they live in
and support from their family members. It is idea for all of
their family members to learn Sign Language so that deaf and
hard of hearing child can comprehend his or her environment
just like any other hearing children.
Today, we are very fortunate to have closed captioned
television, video phones, and texting and e-mail access! I did
8. not have access to any of that growing up. My world was very
limited and depended on family members and neighbors to make
phone calls. I can now make phone calls on my own and have
more access to my deaf friends across the world! This
significantly impacted the deaf community in terms of social
means. We used gather together one time per week at our Deaf
clubs because of the lack of contacts. Most deaf people live in
big cities because we have more access to captioned movies,
deaf social services and gatherings. In extreme rural areas, it is
much more challenging for the deaf community to gather
together one time per month. Social services are severely
lacking because of lack of funds. It also depends on the
leadership within the deaf community in rural areas. Often
times deaf community members will go to Sacramento for social
events.
As a whole, social media has made significant strides for the
deaf community. However, we are faced with attitudinal
barriers by hearing people on a daily bases. Hearing people
still think Deaf and hard of hearing people are “Deaf and
Dumb”. In one of my presentations an ASL student asked me,
“What kind of jobs you cannot do?” I looked at her and asked
her, “What kind of jobs you cannot do?” The entire class and
her were a bit dumbfounded and thought about it. They said
you are absolutely right! We also have our own limits! We had
a positive discussion about how all of us have our limits. My
deafness just stands out.
In Chico area, the deaf community meets one time per month if
can. In addition, there is a smaller community in Oroville that
meets once in a while. We do not meet very often because all
of us are spread out in the country. Some members do not want
to associate with the deaf community because they do not want
to be involved. Some just hang out with particular friends and
are content with that.
9. As a deaf individual who faced so many attitudinal barriers on a
personal level and as an advocate for my people from the
hearing society on a daily bases, has made me stronger as a deaf
woman today. I would not change who I am. I believe in
accepting people for who they are because of my life
experience. My education has also significantly impacted my
life as well. It is a blessing to be part of my people and being
part of the hearing community with wide variety of cultures. As
a whole, all of us need to communicate effectively and remove
our attitude barriers among each other. This requires
perseverance and hard work from all of us as individuals and as
a community.
