RAW VIDEO: Deaf black students say they were manhandled by police.
BELLEVILLE, NJ - The East Coast's Stop and Frisk law allowed New Jersey cops to stop a group of deaf black teenagers and harass them. A group of deaf men, on summer vacation from a Trenton trade school for the hearing-impaired, said they were stopped and manhandled by cops in Belleville, New Jersey Tuesday.
20 year old Isiah Isaac used “sign language” to tell the story to PIX 11 through his mother and brother. “It was six cars that surrounded them,” Isaac’s mother, Frances, said—as she followed his sign language in the family living room. “He said all the cop cars came over and blocked them in.”
17 year old Domonique Isaac - Isiah’s brother - said he was the only one of six, young men in the car who could hear. The driver, he said, was Deaf - and got out of the car to fetch his l icense from a bag in the trunk. Isaac said, “The passenger (in the front) tried to get out and explain to the officer that he’s Deaf.
The driver ended up on the other side of the car and they slammed him in the passenger’s seat. When he slammed him in, that’s when I tried telling him, ‘He’s Deaf, he’s DEAF.’” ...

RAW VIDEO: Deaf Kentuckian woman mauled by pit bull dog.
LOUISVILLE, KY - A 59-year old Deaf woman who lives in an assisted adult care home because of her special needs is in the hospital after being mauled by a pit bull. She couldn't hear the dog coming or even form the words to say help.
Tony Simpson, who witnessed the attack, tells WDRB News, "I've never never seen nothing like that."
The two-year-old pit bull named Rambo sits quarantined in a steel cage at the Breckinridge County Animal Shelter.
Stacey Lucas and her fiance Tony Simpson say the last time they saw the dog in Cloverport, it was trying to tear Shirley Sturgeon apart.
Simpson says, "The dog was literally just eating the woman. He was not just biting her. He was tearing her meat off and swallowing it."
Shirley Sturgeon lives at Breckinridge Manor. She is deaf and was walking down a road Saturday on the way to a friend's house. It was just about a block from her home that Rambo attacked as she walked up the road... Read more: http://www.wdrb.com/story/deaf-mute-woman-attacked-by-pit-bull

“In nature there’s no blemish but the mind, none can be called deformed but unkind” (William Shakespeare in Twelfth Night Act III Scene IV)
Never has God created imperfect people, or what-is-so-called ‘disabled’. People who call them as disabled are the most cruel people. God created people with the highest perfection and having the same right to develop their potentials to gain wealth.
Until these days, the lives of disabled people and deaf people in Indonesia are still marginalized both structurally and culturally. There is injustice to get their rights for education, jobs, health, social, culture, law, access for information, and public facilities use. In other word, there is discrimination toward disabled people in the society. Attitudes towards disability are quite bad in Indonesia, and there is a lingering association of impairment with wrong-doing.
Most people are embarrassed about disability, and deaf children are sometimes hidden away, especially in rural areas. Some of the Deaf people in the organisations we work with say their parents let them come to meetings in the hope that they will ‘become normal’ by forbidding them from using sign language. Faced with negative attitudes like this, Deaf children often grow up to have low self-esteem and little self-confidence.
Too many people are busy with their own importance; trying to get more money, chasing better carriers, and thinking to get higher positions, or even cheating for their own sakes as they have forgotten their surroundings that need their hands.
Through this paper, I would like to invite people to step into the proud of, emergent DEAF-WORLD and learn about its language, values, history, and concerns and to see a ‘real world’ surround us, but might have not been seen or heard by our very own eyes & ears to ‘open’ other people’s eyes to see a deaf community that is considered as a minor-marginal-community in Indonesia as disabled people, while not many people realize that deaf community is not disabled people but they see themselves as ‘language minority group’ who are fighting to get their right of sign language as their first mother tongue language.
Through our presentation, we will guide all of you to have a wonderful journey tour into the deaf world in Indonesia, their deaf culture, sign language, deaf education and their life. We will have it through our interactive workshop, to give you an opportunity to experience a little of what the works is like for a Deaf person.
In everyday like, Deaf people try to overcome barriers to communication in an environment that is designed to meet needs of hearing people. We hope that this workshop will provide a valuable insight into the life of Deaf people.
By attending the workshop, you will gain a better understanding of how to communicate with deaf people (communication strategies), how to be deaf like is, some basic Indonesian sign, how deaf enjoy the music and culture art in theatre. Indonesia News video clip: Deaf Art Community Jogja

VIDEO: English Subtitles - The Deaf Holocaust - Deaf People and Nazi Germany.
This documentary covers the treatment of Deaf people in Nazi Germany during World War Two. 17,000 Deaf people were forcibly sterilised by the Nazis to stop them from having children and many others were killed simply because they were deaf - in a bid to improve the German gene pool.
As part of the season of programmes commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Holocaust and the liberation of Auschwitz, Clive Mason visits the killing centre of Hadamar to investigate the development and impact of the Nazi policy of enforced sterilisation and the murder of Deaf and Disabled people, which took place in Germany between 1933 and 1945. Members of the German Deaf community, who are still living with the legacy of this brutal Nazi policy, tell their moving stories for the first time on television.
