DeafDigest - 28 September 2021

DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - September 28, 2021 -- employer promises deaf employees better quality jobs Employers say they hire the deaf but basically it is dead-end, no-opportunity, low pay jobs. One employer is different; a tire factory said they will continue to improve the quality of the jobs offered to the deaf and the disabled. This is the first DeafDigest editor has read about it! And it is great.   -- Could a deaf person dance to the music? Of course, it is a silly question because deaf people love to dance. Yet, there was a question from a dance instructor: How can I do this for those with hearing impairments? We've had professional dancers that were deaf. One of them was Sam Edwards who gave a TV performance of his dancing skills during the seventies.   -- brutal police officer "punished" There was a story today that a brutal police officer was "punished" by breaking his own leg while beating up a deaf man during a routine arrest. And that he claimed the defenseless deaf man "broke" his leg! He is facing a lawsuit over this violent incident.   Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 09/26/21 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
