I am proud to announce that @AMCTheatres permanently will offer some Open Caption showtimes each week. Well marked on our web site and mobile app. A real advance for those with hearing difficulties or where English is a second language. And right in time for Eternals from @Disney

RT if you want to see Congress pass legislation prohibiting the use of tear gas in the U.S.

.@zoom_us meetings through deaf eyes: looking at the interpreter, colleagues, chatbox and shared PPT screen. Not so different than IRL actually, but somehow it’s more obvious now what kind of multimodal challenge this is.

Before sending anyone back to their jobs, @realdonaldtrump, you should try doing yours. https://t.co/mQ6BgU2uqX

@codajeff @jmhenner They got this right with access, camera on the CDI and clear!

Need better teleconferencing during COVID-19? Thank deaf scientists #docswithdisabilities @earscience who are improving videoconf apps via collabs with tech companies. Captioning & interface design are pushing this to the next level...just as we did with closed captioning for TV.

Hi I’m an educational linguist specializing in signed languages. You may know me from my chart tipping singles, “yes that’s bad methodology (for reals)”, “no sign won’t hurt your kid’s spoken language skills”, and “stop that nonsense (come on now)”

[christine sun kim @chrisunkim]

the way the @WHO frames our deafness is ableist and even anti sign language. im pretty bummed by this.

[Sarah @sarahlovesears]

Too many audiologists with typical hearing ability are unaware of the needs of deaf and hard of hearing audiologists/AuD students. I don’t get why this is an issue. We all know about the limitations of hearing devices and what to expect when communicating with DHH people.

[Adam Schembri @AdamCSchembri]

I’m seeing workshops again on sign languages with only invited hearing presenters. I’m also noticing some of the same big names invited over and over. Do we as senior scholars have a duty to turn down invitations to present and suggest deaf AND more junior colleagues instead?

[Jon Henner @jmhenner]

Holy shit yes. Hearing scholars cannot be allies if they don’t throw elbows for deaf colleagues. And not the same deaf scholar every time.

This video on Comcast's commitment to accessibility and inclusiveness isn't captioned.

[Lisa Cryer @DeafDyke]

@jmhenner Accessible my ass.

[Lisa Cryer @DeafDyke]

I hear you in every song.

I see someone has a new sugar daddy. Oh my.
