@DohaDebates @thegreatdancer This is really great but why “deaf” and not “Deaf” when Antoine Hunter PurpleFireCrow is clearly culturally Deaf? Why use a white interpreter when there are so many talent Black interpreters? I wish more thought was put into that. Otherwise beautiful.

"Dance has helped me express myself. It saved my life."

For @thegreatdancer, a choreographer and activist who is also Black and deaf, dance helps him create community for all people who want to learn to fully express themselves. This is his disability justice.

We're facing a full-scale assault on our constitutional right to speak out against police brutality. Attempts to harm and silence Black protest and people will not go unchecked.

Here's how we're fighting back:

@thegreatdancer @claudiaalick @sesamestreet @CNN @SFdirewolf The Deaf kids kept asking me why their families were upset and what was happening. I didn’t have the language at that time to hold space for them. It’s so unjust.

[danielle silk @DanielleSilk]

@thegreatdancer @claudiaalick @sesamestreet @CNN @SFdirewolf Yes because I interned in two second grade classrooms, one Deaf, one hearing, when Trayvon Martin (Rest in Power) was killed and all the hearing kids knew what was happening and could talk about it. The Deaf kids had no idea what was happening but knew something was wrong.

[claudiaalick @claudiaalick]

@thegreatdancer @sesamestreet @CNN @SFdirewolf I don’t know anyone at @cnn or @sesamestreet Their last townhall was not sign interpreted. https://t.co/wKz1VlS1nY

[danielle silk @DanielleSilk]

@claudiaalick @thegreatdancer @sesamestreet @CNN @SFdirewolf So important for Deaf children and their families to have access to this important conversation.
