Deaf and hard of hearing are the terminologies. Having a hearing loss does not render us impaired. We’re a language rich and culturally vibrant community. My deafness is an integral part of my identity on par w/ my gender, race, nationality... “Moving pass deaf” is unthinkable.
Proud to lead the congressional effort to recognize the many contributions that deaf, hard-of-hearing, late-deafened and DeafBlind individuals, including those with additional disabilities, have made to U.S. #DeafHistoryMonth.

Thirty-one years ago today, more than 2,500 people marched from #GallaudetU to the U.S. Capitol Building as part of the Deaf President Now protest. The march was comprised of students, faculty, staff, alumni, and members of the local and national deaf communities!
@Carolyn_Ten @Bouquetin_Alpes@simongerman600 Perhaps you’re referencing the formal education and recording of French Sign Language? Sign languages have actually been around as long as deaf people have existed. It’s not universal for the same reasons that oral languages are not. I hope this helps!

Road conditions will deteriorate as snow is predicted to fall at a rate of 1" an hour or more from late afternoon to late evening. Our plows will be out and working as fast as they can, but with snow falling fast, expect snow packed and icy roads. Remember to give plows room!
