Kenya Television Network (KTN) Stop Describing the Deaf as 'Dumb'
Deaf YouVideo does not appreciated regardless of the 'Deaf and Dumb' stereotypes from the Kenya Television Network on "Meet Diana Hirwa, a brilliant artist who is deaf and dumb" which a video showing an inappropriate as labeled "dumb" and it seems NOT the inspirational message to the community as well.
Diana Hirwa is Deaf and uses sign language to communicate, and the way the Kenya Television Network has chosen to portray her is quite revealing. Major news outlets from KTN to the media all decided to utilize the outdated terms 'Deaf and Dumb' in their stories about the woman. Dear ignorant media, question: What do you call Deaf people ?
