In 1880, the international conference was one of the most impactful events, in the lives and learning of the deaf community. This conference tried it’s hardest to ruin sign language. The conference consisted of how in their opinion oral education was far greater that sign language. An order passed prohibiting sign language, the United states did not stand behind this. This ban was instituted because of ignorance and people tend to be afraid of what they do not understand.
It was an inevitable conclusion. The outcome was basically, fixed, because the conference was planned and organized by a committee that was against sign language. This committee selected the attending representatives more than half were known speakers from France and Italy.
