Carol Padden (Author) and Tom Humphries
This work looks at the historical events and forces that have defined the ‘Deaf in America’. An absorbing read, it details the search for a voice and identity. It relates their proud self-discovery and self-description as flourishing culture. Described as ‘moving’, the book’s conclusion sees Padden and Humphries describe their own very different journeys into the deaf community, reflecting on the challenges and opportunities that face this constituency.
A powerful volume that is a must for all.
