-- a video for cops scared to deal with the deaf
Many cops are afraid to deal with the deaf, even if
it is a trivial matter, like a broken tail light.
To deal with the fear, a TV station in Tulsa has
produced a video to show to cops on how to deal
with the deaf. This was part of the theme -
Tulsa Police Work To Improve Communication With Deaf
Community.
-- a confession of a hearing actor playing a deaf role
We hate it when hearing actors play deaf roles, thus
stealing jobs from deaf actors. Larry Heard, a hearing
actor with small roles in Louisiana, said:
It is awkward being deaf because you hear everything,
and yet you have to act like you don't hear anything
-- a deaf bakery in United Kingdom
There was a deaf-owned bakery in the United Kingdom,
The Bakery, located in Buckingham, a small town of
12,000 people. The deaf owner was Arthur Loyns,
who operated it for 10 years until it was destroyed
during World War II. A number of hearing bakers
worked for him, and it was considered the best
bakery in town, with a reputation for food quality
and for clean facilities.
