Join @CRSHColonialism for a film screening and conversation on the connections between the MMIWG2S crisis, disability justice, and the environment across the medicine line (US/Canada border). Hosted at @GallaudetU on May 15. facebook.com/events/4559790…
One of the first studies of Deaf LGBTQ+ language was in 1981. Gay and straight men and women were shown signs and asked their responses. This "ear pinch" sign for gay was understood by 95% of the gay participants but only 45% of the straight ones. #DeafHistoryMonth #DeafLGBTQWeek
Ready for the biggest deaf trivia event of the year? This weekend, Gallaudet's Academic Bowl National Championships are taking over the museum! Sixteen teams from around the country will battle it out over the weekend, and we'll reopen on Monday after the winner is crowned!
The first Rainbow Deaf Society was formed in San Francisco in 1973. The country's largest gay organization at the time, the Society for Individual Rights (S.I.R.), advertised the deaf group in its regular calendar, published in Vector Magazine. #DeafHistoryMonth #DeafLGBTQWeek
Dr. Barbara Kannapell (1937-2021) got a degree in sociolinguistics, but she was also known as an activist. She helped increase recognition of ASL as a language and lived her life authentically as an out, proud lesbian. #DeafHistoryMonth #DeafLGBTQWeek
Happy National Deaf LGBTQ Awareness Week! Founded by the @deafqueer Resource Center in 2018, it celebrates and uplifts Deaf LGBTQ+ individuals. As part of #DeafHistoryMonth we'll be focusing on deaf queer history for #DeafLGBTQWeek! Check out deaflgbtqweek.info for more!
Cal Rodgers (1879-1912) was the first deaf pilot. He took flying lessons from Orville Wright. He was the first person to fly across the US, making 70 stops along the way! He died in a crash shortly after, but was added to the Nat'l Aviation Hall of Fame in 1964. #DeafHistoryMonth
Heading to see @gallytheatre's production of RENT this weekend? Visit our exhibition "Left Behind: HIV/AIDS and the Deaf Community" in the lobby! Tickets for the show are available at gallaudet.ticketleap.com.
April brings two of our favorite events from @GUYouthPrograms! This week we'll be closed for the Battle of the Books, and a few weeks later we'll be closed for the Academic Bowl. These national competitions feature some of the best deaf students from around the country!
