Hello Sign Language Lovers!!!...

First of all I would like to thank my Mother & Father for providing me with a language unique to them and their community...American Sign Language. My mother is the one who encouraged me and was so proud of me when I became an ASL interpreter. Many thanks, Mom. 

ASL Workshops, Sign Language Classes, ASL Interpreter Training, Sign Language Classes with Certification Maintenance "CEU's", Sign language & fingerspelling Workshops, Ez2B Workshop Titles: 28 different workshops. Accelerated Mentoring Program "AMP", Smart Baby Signs,  ASL Conversationally I & II, Prepare to Evaluate Program "PEP" Favorite Workshops: Classy Classifiers, Expressing your Expressions, Idims, American English, Figuring Out Fingerspelling, Transliterating English to ASL Gloss, "Panels 'R' Us", more... are at the heart of our Educational Outreach Program.  Deaf Instructors: David Ballard, Bryant Smith, Zak Wertz.

When Sign Language, American Sign Language "ASL" is your 1st and  native language, it affords you a perspective while growing up in the Deaf community  that no other experience in life can hold.

The person, and the interpreter that I am today, what I have to share with those who desire to learn ASL, learn to Interpret and learn about the Deaf community, comes not from a text book, but rather living it everyday of my life. 

My mother told me so many times as a child, tell them (Hearing folks) about us (Deaf folks) so they will not be afraid of us, so they will want to know us, understand we having feelings too and feel comfortable  with us.  If you don't who else will?, Many thanks, Mom

 That was during the 50's and 60's before interpreting became a known profession in the Deaf community. Although was a very long time ago, it still holds true today, too many people are still unaware and do not know or understand about people who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing and their unique community.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

As recently as the Spring of 2009, I heard a person in a very high place of authority ask, "How can a Deaf person get a suspended driver's license? They don't allow them to get a driver's licenses do they, well how can they drive they can't hear a siren can they? 

I wanted to say, Yes, they can drive they are not blind!, however,  I calmly as possible said, "Yes Deaf people are allow to drive they can see flashing lights before we can hear them."

 Yes, it's sad but true... 

Audism still goes on even in 2009.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I think often of my mother's words "tell them, and teach them about us Deaf folks" My mother's words always ring in my ears whenever I see or hear an uneducated  comment about people who are Deaf.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

In 1964, a Judge told my mother, Ignorance of the law is no excuse, my mother told the Judge that she thought the law seemed very unfair.  I was interpreting for my parents in small claims court at 14 yrs old, and I felt the pangs of discrimination and Audism even when I didn't understand what the terms meant, I experienced them with my parents. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
