Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Detroit, the Motor City, welcomed many newcomers to work and interact in the deaf community in the early 20th century. The booming job market attracted Benjamin and Ralph Beaver, deaf brothers from Iuka, Illinois, who helped form the Detroit Association of the Deaf (DAD) Club—celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2016. Others included the Wahowiak family, who ran a shoe repair business in Upper Michigan for two deaf generations; Arlyn Meyerson, a deaf restaurateur for 55 years; Glenn Stewart, the first black deaf man graduated from Rochester Institute of Technology; and Dudley Cutshaw, a longtime deaf local leader. In addition, Grand Rapids, Flint, and Upper Michigan each contributed to this great deaf heritage by affiliating with Detroit’s deaf community. Through vintage photographs of successful organizations, including Catholic Deaf Organization, Motor City Association of the Deaf, Black Silent Club, Michigan Deaf School, and Flint Association for the Deaf, Detroit’s Deaf Heritage illustrates the evolution of the deaf community and its prominent leaders.

Book Synopsis The Lost Shared Signing Community of Lantz Mills and Shenandoah County, Virginia by : Kathleen L. Brockway
Download or read book The Lost Shared Signing Community of Lantz Mills and Shenandoah County, Virginia written by Kathleen L. Brockway and published by . This book was released on 2022-03-26 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This individual booklet (3.26.2022) will later turn into a Chapter (2023) will introduce viewers to oral interviews, signed narratives, and historical artifacts of the lost shared signing community of Lantz Mills and Shenandoah County, Virginia between the eighteenth and twentieth centuries. Perhaps the best known American historical shared signing community was made popular by Nora Groce in her 1985 work, Everyone Here Spoke Sign Language: Hereditary Deafness on Martha's Vineyard. Numerous references demonstrate that deaf and hearing townspeople communicated and understood a common sign language in the Massachusetts island colony. For years, historians, writers, and the deaf community have assumed that the Martha's Vineyard confluence was a singular event. The unearthing of these Lantz Mills community stories, however, excavates yet another unique space where community members utilized a visual language and affordances to thrive as a collective. Deaf citizens of the Lantz Mills area played an important and unique role in the life and economy of the community. The documentation and narratives surrounding this endangered 'shared signing community' (McKay-Cody, 2019) are not only important to American deaf communities, but also serve as an important - and initial - chapter in the story of deaf residents in Shenandoah County. There are more stories and details and artifacts to share.

Book Synopsis Words Made Flesh by : R. A. R. Edwards
Download or read book Words Made Flesh written by R. A. R. Edwards and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early nineteenth century, schools for the deaf appeared in the United States for the first time. These schools were committed to the use of the sign language to educate deaf students. Manual education made the growth of the deaf community possible, for it gathered deaf people together in sizable numbers for the first time in American history. It also fueled the emergence of Deaf culture, as the schools became agents of cultural transformations. Just as the Deaf community began to be recognized as a minority culture, in the 1850s, a powerful movement arose to undo it, namely oral education. Advocates of oral education, deeply influenced by the writings of public school pioneer Horace Mann, argued that deaf students should stop signing and should start speaking in the hope that the Deaf community would be abandoned, and its language and culture would vanish. In this revisionist history, Words Made Flesh explores the educational battles of the nineteenth century from both hearing and deaf points of view. It places the growth of the Deaf community at the heart of the story of deaf education and explains how the unexpected emergence of Deafness provoked the pedagogical battles that dominated the field of deaf education in the nineteenth century, and still reverberate today.
