My Battle Call

Title (Dublin Core)

My Battle Call

Description (Dublin Core)

Reminders such as these have been circulating. Trying to help hearing people understand some challenges those in the Deaf world are facing right now. One of them being our inability to read lips and facial expressions. Many Deaf, deaf, HoH people have been shamed in public recently because we can not understand people wearing masks. Hearing people can be very rude shouting at us, "What are you deaf or something?!?" Well, yes sir I am!
