there's been a few wonderful posts circulating around the fandom for writing blind/low vision characters and ive been wondering, does anyone have similar resources for writing Deaf/hard of hearing characters (written by people who are Deaf/HoH)?

#esp important in this fandom since zuko most definetly would be hard of hearing #have been reading about Deaf community & going thru blogs / tags #which is great!#but have not seen much specifically on representation yet #i hope it is okay for me as a hearing person to use the following tags #adding them so that this may reach the people am trying to learn from #deafcommunity #deafgain #hoh

Have you heard about the famous, groundbreaking Brown v. Board of Education Case in 1954?

This case discussed the law that allowed Blacks and Whites to be taught at “separate but equal” schools.

SMH.

The Supreme Court unanimously declared that racially segregated public facilities were illegal.

YES!

This case fueled the civil rights movements in United States.

BUT WAIT!

Did you know there was a similar case for a Black Deaf Child, called Miller v. Board of Education of D.C. two years before the Brown v. Board case?

REALLY?

Yep! Black, deaf children in D.C. weren’t allowed to attend Columbia Institution for the Deaf (now called Kendall Demonstration Elementary School), which at the time was an all white school located on Gallaudet University’s Campus.

WHAT? HUH?

In 1952, Louise Miller, a Black mother of three deaf sons, filed a lawsuit to allow Black Deaf children to attend Columbia Institution.

WOAH!

Since winning the Miller v. Board of Education of D.C. case, Columbia Institution was forced to allow Black Deaf students to attend the school.

Louise’s son, Kenneth Miller was the first of 16 black deaf students to attend.

WAIT A MINUTE!

Despite the fact that the Black Deaf children in D.C. could attend a school closer to home, they were still attending a separate facility.

UGH.

Nevertheless, the Miller v. Board of Education of D.C. paved the way for the historical Brown v. Board of Education case. This is another example of how the Deaf experience has influenced society.

THAT’S DEAF GAIN!

one of my favorite things about growing up deaf was having my own “Deaf Child Area” sign on my street.

The importance here is to really understand why sign language is more than just a language and has a whole history and culture attached to it. Sign language is what helped the Deaf community be seen and heard as people and to gain a place in a hearing dominant world. For along time deaf, dumb, blind, disabled, etc. were all clumped into one looked down upon group. With sign language, individuals were able to communicate what they were feeling, what they wanted, and they were able to communicate with other deaf members.

Additionally, before sign language was taught and accepted, it was looked down upon as well. There were many different methods in which doctors and speech therapist tried to take someone who was deaf and make them hear. Sign language was prohibited and not taught because of the idea that it would decrease the likeliness of one being able to hear.

While researching the connection between hip hop dance and Deafness, in the same way we learned about the history of hip hop I see importance in knowing some back history of Deaf culture.
