i don’t think people should have to work in their 20s i think they should just be government designated Adventure Years where you’re paid to wander the country and go on journeys of self discovery and have gay sex and try different foods and sing badly in cars and create enemies and find fleeting father figures and sometimes commit crimes

A white girl with blonde hair and a blue shirt.

The sign language reads as follows:

[Hey, I want to cover something important.

As some of ya’ll know, I am deeply engrained with the Deaf culture because I want to be an interpreter and have Deaf family.

The world is slowly becoming more accessible, and I am proud of our progress. However…

I want to discuss this school.

This is the Memphis Oral School for the Deaf.

The school will be opening soon, but they do not let their students sign, they discourage it.

And now they are requiring masks, which means lipreading is out of the window.

This article points out that even without masks, the teachers would often cover their mouths when they spoke so that they couldn’t lipread.

Their reasoning? To ensure that the students were “listening with their EARS”.

Read that again…

You are taking away their (Deaf children’s) language, they are not being given Dynamic Equivalence. They have nothing.

When are y’all gonna learn that Deaf kids don’t need to be fixed?

Please spread for awareness.]
