  • I was so sad to find out that this is not in my history book. I am at a public school and hearing but sign is my second language. I love it with all my heart and Deaf culture is amazing. And that is why I looked up this video I think stuff like this should be taught to people. They need to understand.

  • They do not get the point until we sue. When we sue we hit them where it hurts the most, in the pocket. More Deaf need to sue. if you are Deaf and do not get an interpreter. closed captioning, a job because you are deaf, etc.. whatever, sue.

  • i found this video very interesting, and the 80's aesthetic only added to the interest. thank you, current.

  • QuitePossiblyANinja, the self-determination of a people is very important. Deaf people are a minority group that have been oppressed for centuries. The fact that they refused to be lead by a hearing person who didn't know their language was a key moment in civil rights history. Basically, this is equivalent to MLK's peaceful march on Washington. So, I disagree 100%. It's VERY important, and everyone should "worry" about it, or at least know about it and respect its significance.

  • @Banerika And we are still being oppressed.

  • @kalijasin, I know. It's a struggle that continues every day, not just in the US, but across the world.

  • @QuitePossiblyANinja, try living as a Deaf person for a few days. Then maybe you'll change your mind about it's "importance."

  • i posted this comment before i watched the video. i thought they meant the united states president.
