Barb DiGi is going to show you some brief clips of the film, "The Preservation of Sign Language" from 1913 showing how ALL the speakers who use the sign for DEAF. Did she actually see DEAF-CLOSE sign even once in that film? You see for yourself. Special thanks to Sign Media for granting me permission to use their video resources. You can check it out at www.signmedia.com to order these videotapes.

  • I understand a little bit, but for the benefit of everyone else, they should have tried to caption or subtitle what is being said.

  • Too much work to add captions. I have provided a transcript on my blogspot. There are so many videos produced by hearing people who don't even bother offer captions so why should we?

  • Hi, I'd love to understand a bit better what you are talking about. I'm Deaf from the UK, and I sign BSL, and I understand some of your ASL but not fully. I understand you have a transcript on your website / blog. I looked there in the 2007 section but couldn't find the transcript. Could you post a direct link here please? It would help us deaf people from other countries. Many thanks Tomato
