5/17/08 Eucational Workshop: "Deafhood: People of the Eye - Community of Vision"
Presenter: Ella Mae Lentz

George Veditz, a Deaf Sign Language activitst in early 1900's said "Deaf people are first and foremost people of the eye...," not people of deficit (hearing loss). The 21st century is bringing giant leaps in science and technology bringing the Deaf community better quality of life as well as potential for extinction. The Book of Proverbs says, "Where there is no vision, the people perish." What should the vision be for the people of the eye that will sustain our existence? This presentation emphasizes the need to move away from the deficit model of "deafness" and "hearing loss" towards the Deafhood model that celebrates our gifts and contributions to create our vision. A possible vision that originated in a letter by California Association of the Deaf will be broken down and elaborated. This vision includes an ideal view of "deaf," the use of American Sign Language for academic excellence, dealing with Deaf-related concerns, divisions and diversity, and consideration for future generations.

1pm - 4pm

Auditorium

Please RSVP by May 11th to Liz at the email address below as they need head count so they will be providing free food: mini croissant sandwiches, brownies coffee, tea, ice water and pop at the workshop.
