DeafDigest - 24 June 2021

DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - June 24, 2021 -- inventing sign language A book for children, titled - The Big Book of Tell Me Why - has a question - Who invented sign language? Past pro football player John Urschel, not deaf, continues to remember that question when he brought it up recently. A web search said that Pedro Ponce de León was credited for inventing sign language. Did the book mention de León? Do not know.   -- difficult to enforce web accessibility We have ADA regulations regarding web accessibility. Yet business.com said: Online accessibility is a weak area for enforcement in the United States Sigh!   -- sound and music on a deaf facebook page The Deaf Basketball Group facebook TV commercial featured sound and music in the background while deaf basketball players were signing to each other. Appropriate or not? Good question!   Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 06/20/21 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
