There was a video of an angry dad ranting about his disrespectful daughter on FaceBook last week. It wasn't captioned, so many of us were curious exactly what was going on. Here is the ASL interpreted version of the video, courtesy of Keith and Emilia Wann.
Keith also challenges students to step up and start video interpreting other newsworthy and pop culture items into ASL for the Deaf Community. What a concept! Be sure to read what he has to say and the challenge he puts forth below his video:

Let's see more like this! Also, if you would kindly caption them for so many baby boomers who have now become deaf late in life, but aren't fluent in ASL, that would be an added bonus.
Raised on the Southern Oregon Coast, now retired on the Southern Oregon Coast. I was a hard of hearing child who grew up to be a deafened adult. I share and write about deafness, hearing loss and other things I find interesting. I am a 50 something year old woman who could be anyone's mother, grandmother or friend. I've traveled the U.S., and I've lived in Europe. I'm currently residing near the beach with Fabulous Husband and 11 year old son. ~ Joyce Edmiston

huh, interesting video. I bet that daughter is totally livid when she saw her dad shooting her laptop.
ReplyDeleteI honestly don't think I could do what the dad did, most likely would have put the laptop under lock and key.
I like your sensible approach, Candy, locking up the laptop. I would have handled it differently myself. I'm pleased to see someone stepped in and made the video in ASL so deaf people could have a clue what it was all about, and what everyone is discussing.
