It broke my heart to learn that hearing individuals or oralists would stifle deaf children’s potential to learn their language and culture. To try to make a deaf child “act” like a hearing child is absurd and…

Within this section, a helpful guide of appropriate terms and inappropriate terms is provided so hearing people understand what is acceptable when describing a deaf person.

Andrew J Foster was an amazing man that just might have changed the world of deaf culture. Foster was born on June 27, 1925, in Ensley, Ala. However, growing up was hard for Foster because he confronted segregation and prejudice growing up as an African American. As a kid, he confronted school isolation, and additionally managing sub-human acts and laws.

pushes her insistent belief that “lesbianism … was [simply] a passing thing” (90-133). In light of her consecutive breakdowns mid-text, this is ultimately deemed false. “I was bound to come undone,” Galloway writes, referring to both the strain of her hearing guise, as well as her “scarily pent-up sexuality” (103).

If a student has weak language skills, then it is expected that he will struggle to learn how to read and write.

the hearing people around me were the “culture shock” and not the Deaf Culture. As I became older, it became easier for me to see the vast differences between the two and ultimately grow an appreciation for both worlds.
