@DeafSweetMind watch Jadethegem's vlog.. Keep asking our leaders to protest.. We must build on facts why we must preserve and protect our Deaf Center.. That is our ASL and Deaf Culture, and get inside our American political system, and regulate our laws. I want to see that we be able to legislate, to propose, to vote, to amend, to ratify, to abolish, to veto, mandate, our own Minority Rights laws through Minority Rule, not hearing people. Majority tend to oppress Minority people everywhere.

@Bunjer We all know what we want to protect whatever we have in our Deaf community.. MY whole point is to ask the question for the Leaders who can give us an answer first before we can do something . That s all i want to ask...

@DeafSweetMind Boycott to protect our Deaf Center, our ASL, our Language. We must do it ourselves. Deaf Minority Rule being involved in our American Goverment system. Majority is in charge of our issues, our rights? They decide what to do with us, and that means they are protecting us? Hearing people will never protect us, because they have no idea who we are, and it is silly to ask them to protect us. Hearing always fail. It is our responsibilty to protect our Deaf Center, our ASL, and Culture!

@Bunjer I m asking for a person who is taking the lead to have the boycott plans with the requirement of BS or MA degree or no degree?? As far as I know you can do this as well as you have your BS degree, So what s your point for saying this since I strongly think that we need to have the set up our protection of our language culture and Human Being s Rights that needs to be done first before you can process with majority in all settings of social, media, politics and etc,

Yea, on Youtube, I tore up my Gallaudet Degree to start a protest.. Wanted the University I graduated from to become Deaf Centered and run by Deaf, not Hearing. Will that happen? If it happens at Gallaudet, it can happen anywhere, because we don't need a degree to be told what to do by hearing people, but tell them we want. Minority should be equal to Majority in all settings, social, media, politics, academic, business, and employment or where ever.. If we march we should demand minority rule!
All I can say someone deceived me about it so I had so much doubt in this person who said it. Good thing I want to ask about it first before I go on. So therefore this person is an audist as well :) I also felt discriminated by a person who thinks and know it all that I dont appreciate it at all.. I m really disappointed about that person. Sighs! Now this is how we dont get the unity if someone reject someone like that is a big mistake by this person. I m so glad to check it out for the truth.

Right, we must protect Deaf community anywhere. We are a minority and, therefore, deserve legal protection of our way of life.

You don't have to have a BA or MA to be a leader. If you believe strongly - and you do - that there are serious things to discuss then there neds to be opportunity. Closing someone off just shuts down the whole process of discussion and therefore, learning. Many have tried to shut us down, many have failed. Be strong!!

@deafjohnj Thank you so much for sharing with me as far as i felt strongly that is a real discrimination against people who do not have BS or MA degree as I dont agree with that kind of attitude.. So this is the purpose for me to ask any of those leaders a question as far as i m still waiting for their answer.. If not then i ll know from there. what a very sad for someone oppress someone who is motivated to work with others as teamwork....
