Communicating with Relay Service Interpreters

[deafactive]

ASL and Oral Deaf are very alike but in very different ways. There are struggles within ASL-only dialogues. Too many are too lax borrowing from SEE. The most prominent Deaf vlogger often borrows from SEE. I cringed when he signed "direction" among few terms said in SEE. Lack of discipline. Unless NAD stops misrepresenting their numbers (serving 26-28-30 million deaf and hard of hearing) they won't have anything on even AGBELL. Just clean up our own acts and language first. Sophisticated ASL,

Yeah,

I wonder why and who is keeping ASL language education(bilingual) out of schools? And who is dominating of how Deaf should learn which language, i.e. auditory(monolingual) verses visual(bilingual)-ASL/English.

AGBell need to clean up their acts and their disrespect of bilingual ideology.

It is the sophisticated monolingual ideology that failed many Deaf people's communication modality skills.

Since 1880 Milan, it has been AGHell about how Deaf people suffered.

I am not in favor to Alex Graham Bell in his name. because of this name that kind of support of oralism. I am not interested about it. Alex Graham Bell sound like it's insulted with his own support of oralism thing not allowed to use the sign languages. Can you image? Why they need VP to fix?

Maybe it is time for the Oralists and Manualists to bury the hatchet. I am hoping for a future dialogue involving members of the AG Bell Association and the National Association of the Deaf.

ReneeT60,

Will this future dialogue resolve the oralist's communication modality problems?

I strongly believe that the oralist and manualists can have the dialogue and NAD will encourage that but I doubt that AG Bell would approve that.

It is time for them to LEARN ASL!!
