DiGi, B. (2007, May 9). The Sweet Smell of Victory for ASL!The Rush-Henrietta School District made a proposal to phase out ASL class as a foreign language credit that the 8th graders have been earning a credit that is equivalent to high school level. The fight was presented by the deaf community members to confront the board in a town meeting where many spoke out to preserve ASL in middle school. It led to convince the board to unanimously vote to keep ASL classes in middle school. See how this model has set up an example of unity to make the outcome desirable by the deaf community.

gnarlydork. (2007, May 2). ASL signs. Most are "slangs" (best word I can say at this moment) which you won't find in your typical ASL textbooks. Those signs are my most common words used among my HS friends and myself. ANSWERS for you to CHEAT. Try and rew the video before you go ahead and read this first. You need to practice your comprehension first-- how else will you fully grasp a language if you don't TRY? All of them are written in ASL-- so do YOUR RESEARCH and figure out what is the English equivalent. "Sick me" "Yeah" nose "Drool" "Hot-neck" "Snot-throw" "Gullible" "Think Me Nothing?" "Puh-PLease" "Scoff" "Finish Immature" "Scam"

Sounds Of Sign, Inc. (doing business as Music In Motion) is a not for profit, tax- exempt educational program designed to promote Deaf awareness in the community. Due to the vast increase of Deaf and hearing-impaired persons in this country, American Sign Language (ASL) has recently been recognized by the U.S. government as a foreign language, with its own grammar and syntax. There are many more Deaf students and employees present in our schools and workplaces. Unfortunately, due to a lack of education and communication skills, many of us are unaware of the needs and challenges of Deaf and hearing-impaired persons. Music In Motion is dedicated to bridging that gap.

Color of Sign. (2007, February 22). ASL ABC Story!One of the fun and special traditions enjoyed and shared by the Deaf Community is signing stories using Number or Alphabet hand shapes. In these stories, various hand shapes do not stand for the numbers and letters themselves, but are used as signs or gestures to convey concepts. They are signed in alphabetical or numerical order, and used in amazing ways to sign or act out a story.

Half-N-Half - Sherry Hicks. Sherry is an extraordinary woman artist who has developed into an exceptional solo and collaborative performance artist. Her work focuses on improvization in ASL storytelling. Sherry blends the elements of theatre, music, movement and native ability with sign language with her uncanny ability to enchant her audiences of all ages and backgrounds. ASL is her first language and all the members of her family are Deaf, she is the only hearing member (Oh Coda) (Only Hearing Child of Deaf adults) of her family. This rich experience has shaped her worldview which is what Sherry calls Deaf centric and Coda centric. She is a prolific artist has written three plays; two creative non-fiction literary works, and as produced several videotapes of her performances of these works. Her career has spanned over two decades and she considers her work to be on the edge of Deaf culture and at the heart of coda culture.

RIT Study: Sign Language Interpreters at High Ergonomic Risk. Sign language interpreting is one of the highest-risk professions for ergonomic injury, according to a new study conducted by RIT. The research indicates that interpreting causes more physical stress to the extremities than high-risk tasks conducted in industrial settings, including assembly line work. It also found a direct link between an increase in the mental and cognitive stress of the interpreter and an increase in the risk of musculoskeletal injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome and tendonitis.

Hot Topic: Sponsorship within Deaf Community.In this 2 minute ASL vlog, you will see several NEW clips of Deaf ladies making a tough tackle, an incredible interception and a sensational touchdown. In today's commentary, Jasmine Garcia makes a point about Hawk Relay sponsoring typically overlooked groups such as deaf women, deafblind, and unique sports such as cycling. Hawk Relay doesn't care about making a profit or gaining recognition off popular men's teams like other companies. Hawk Relay cares about giving back to the community -- instead of promoting company image and making money. Hawk Relay sets an excellent example of a positive company and community relationship, and we hope other companies will learn from Hawk Relay and do the same -- give support to those who need it the most!

Krauel: A profile of a Deaf filmmaker recaptures a thriving American Deaf community in the first half of the twentieth century. The feeling of Deaf culture of another time pervades this valuable archival video. Charles Krauel's zeal in filming cultural events left an important legacy - an opportunity to study the Deaf community from the late 1920s through the 1950s. Cultural behavior can be observed throughout the documentary, rich with Deaf folklife such as signed sing-alongs that were a staple of social gatherings of the time. Footage of residential schools and students, Deaf cheers, and spontaneous performances is included.

Universal Signs. Universal Signs is a modern silent film about the redemption of the human spirit through the vital connection between people. In an approach unlike any other film about the Deaf, Universal Signs is primarily told through American Sign Language (ASL) with captions for the hearing. In this way, the audience travels on a first person journey through the Deaf world and culture. From ASL mistakes to common miscommunications, everyday life experiences of the Deaf are explored. Deafness is not treated as a physiological condition. In Universal Signs, the Deaf world is viewed as a rich, thriving culture exemplified by strong characters such as: Chris, a linguistics professor; Natalie, a law student; and Andrew, an artist and IT specialist. In Universal Signs, ASL interpreters and hearing individuals do not play Deaf characters — Deaf actors play all Deaf characters!
Wahlin, B. The unstoppable Arthur Luhn: A visionary filmmaker for the ASL community. According to American Sign Language (ASL) lore, in a galaxy far, far away there exists a planet, Eyeth, inhabited mainly by those who use sign language to communicate. Whereas the majority of those who live on Earth speak and hear - using their ears - on Eyeth people communicate visually - with their hands and eyes. So it's fitting that Boston-based filmmaker Arthur Luhn named his production company Eyeth Films, which he founded in 2000 with the purpose of making films by, for, and about the ASL-speaking public. While according to Luhn many big-screen films like Children of a Lesser God "portray the ASL Culture in a rather dreary light" (and even those films are few and far between), Eyeth Films strives to give visibility to the ASL community and capture the richness of its culture and language.

Born deaf in 1766, John Brewster was a preeminent artist who painted portraits of the influential figures of his time and saw the formation of the Deaf-World.
