In my previous post, I took a look at some famous people in history who might be called “militant” today. I continue this thread by taking a look at some of their quotes to see if we could really call them “militants” or not. What I found was quite interesting and revealing. Moreover, many of the things they said can apply to us as Deaf people, if we changed a few words. (As a bonus, you’ll see some of why I will never vlog while the kids are awake again!) :-{

I recently watched the movie “Secluded” on Joey Baer’s website. Although I agree with the movie’s points, I couldn’t help but laugh while watching the movie. After thinking about it, I realized why I did, and I bet many of you did too, and I explain why here. To see the original video, click on: http://www.joeybaer.com/?cat=1
