Photo reblogged from Fuck yeah, feminists!
“The Greatest Irony” by Maureen Klusza
Many De’VIA artists choose to record and share the Deaf perspective by depicting their experiences with audism. Resistance De’VIA examines the suppression of cultural values via the medical and educational systems. It serves as a visual testimony of injustices that Deaf people have faced.
This ligitimately ticks me off… So many times people who have Deaf babies/children refuse to let them sign, thinking that if they refuse that somehow people will see the Deaf child as “normal’… but all they do is keep the child from expressing themselves! But of course its “Super cute” to teach hearing children how to do little signs. Special thanks to Maureen Klusza for making this powerful piece. For more information on audism as it pertains to Deaf culture- the internet/bookstores are CHOCK full of books on the subject. Most of which are very interesting reads. ;)
always reblog.
It’s very sad, but it’s also a harsh reality… It isn’t morally right at all.

While this is a good point about Deaf kids…most parents don’t teach their hearing babies sign language because it’s...
