-- no respect for closed deaf school
A deaf school closed up 13 years ago. The building
has been vacant since then. No one protects the
abandoned property. As a result, it has been
vandalized. This closed school is in Great
Britain. A picture is at:

-- many churches discriminate against the deaf
Do churches discriminate against the deaf? There
is a list of over 5,000 churches that do not
want to caption and have asked the FCC to
allow them NOT to caption. Discrimination?
Yes!
-- abuse of deaf workers is common
DeafDigest mentioned several times that a deaf
foodcourt cleaner in Malaysia was verbally abused
by an angry woman. Her abuse went viral and everyone
supported the deaf cleaner. It was later learned
that deaf food cleaners are often abused by hearing
people - but these abuses did not go viral except
for that one last week! They are abused because
they cannot communicate and these hearing people
get angry.
