Through Deaf Eyes (1:57:11) | ASL + ENG documentary with ENG CC

"Don't just look at my ear. Don't look at it as a physical handicap. We're normal, really. Yes, we do have some accommodations to be made, to survive in a society where it's dominated by hearing people. But at the same time, if you were to come into the room, and it would be full of Deaf people, then you would need the accommodation, too." — Rory Osbrink, teacher

Carolyn McCaskill (Professor of ASL and Deaf studies) shortly thereafter mentioned left-handedness among other things, which I thought was interesting, because I feel like right-handed people don't often describe left-handedness as a disability, while hearing people do often think of Deafness as a disability — but what really is the difference between being Deaf and being left-handed, right?

Edit: Apparently Gallaudet reuploaded the documentary with CC so I've replaced the link and changed the post title.
