“My Deaf Is Not Your Deaf”: Realizing Intersectional Realities at Gallaudet University

Temas

Detalles

In December 2012, we, as students in the Gallaudet University master’s program in Deaf studies, hosted a film screening and campus presentation titled “Beyond Deaf-Hearing: Communities and Intersectionalities.” In our presentation, we showed the audience an image visually and textually representative of us: a black and white stock photograph of small pile of wooden sticks strewn atop a white surface, many intersecting each other, some paralleling each other, and some apart from the others. In the spaces of those sticks, we had placed words that described our identities.
