DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - May 6, 2021 -- deaf person allowed to sit next to court clerk A deaf person, in a court case, was allowed by the judge to sit next to the court clerk during a trial, to keep up with the proceedings. It took place --- in 1882, which is 130 years ago!   -- opportunity for deaf wine-tasters The Court of Master Sommeliers, Americas is offering an online Introductory Sommelier Course. The board says it is a good opportunity for the deaf to learn more about wines!   -- "some sign language" on TV news DeafDigest mentioned that a British TV news program "welcomed" Deaf Awareness Week but without using captions. It did mention that "some" sign language was used. Is it better than nothing? No way! Must have both captions and sign language, not one or the other.   Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 05/03/21 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
