They’re weaponizing ASL. 🙄
This is the sign language for abortion. Absolutely heartbreaking. buff.ly/3R3iNer

“The planes bomb us. We are deaf so it scares us. There is no one to help us and [we] cannot hear.” Ahmed Abu Odeh and his wife Walaa are both deaf. The couple and their children are trying to survive Israeli airstrikes in Gaza.

Absolutely not. Hearing devices are not a magical ‘cure’ for deafness. Language deprivation is very real and sadly very prominent in the deaf community - all children NEED access to language, this is a requirement for development.

#DeafU, a Netflix show about #Deaf students at Gallaudet University, has zero Black Deaf woman. Nor does it have Deafblind or other multiply-disabled students. Mylo & I are disappointed. Producers need to stop whitewashing the #disability experience. #DisabilityTooWhite
