🌍 Today, on International Day of Families, we celebrate unity across borders. 95% of deaf children born to hearing families don't have access to sign language.

When will the #MetGala finally come to terms with how that staircase symbolizes that people with mobility disabilities would never be expected to participate? Don’t even start with an argument about tradition or how that staircase is the only way to show the outfits properly

[James LeBrecht @JimLeBrecht]

Don’t miss out on this wonderful opportunity. I have been a judge for the film challenge for a number of years. I have to tell you that there are certain films and performances that I will never forget. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I'm signal boosting this petition to support the #DisabledStudents at #UCLA who are in danger of not getting their Winter quarter final exam testing accommodations. UCLA has a history of not taking care of their students with disabilities. Please SHARE!

UGH! Should have put the Deaf performers in Taylor Swift's Box and then the cameras would have included them

[Marlee Matlin @MarleeMatlin]

I am absolutely SHOCKED at @CBS for introducing the Deaf performers at today’s pregame #SuperBowl and then not showing even one second (or more) of their performance… as has been tradition for the last 30 years. WHY!?

[Deaf Jam film @DeafJamDoc]

@SLeoChiang Congrats!! Yaayyy! Hands waving in the air for you and your creative team

[Deaf Jam film @DeafJamDoc]

@JimLeBrecht @googlemaps Wow!! ❤️

[Marlee Matlin @MarleeMatlin]
