I love this thread, my turn to chime in...
My wife who is Deaf had me view this video ---
D-PAN: Deaf Performing Artists Network - Beautiful
and also...
D-PAN: Deaf Performing Artists Network - Waiting on the World to Change
The group is called D-PAN, for Deaf Performing Artists Network.
I guarantee once you watch their music videos, it will change forever the way you view deaf people.
And also, the good Lord gave us a son with Autism 8 years ago, so I am totally appreciative of the link rickanderson posted.
Awesome thread, rickanderson.
