Very good! I remember opening books, pictures and films at Gallaudet College Library in the '70s. It was a shock to see those treasurers.

I am glad you did make a good presentation about Veditz and the sob (AGB).

thanks for sharing!
=)

Martha,

I have some hearing parents of Deaf children asked me to contact you if you could add captions or a transcript of you wonderful video post.

I know that it takes time but those hearing parents are the ones that need education/informations.

Respectfully yours,
John Egbert

What a masterpiece!
In 1984, I visited St, Michielgestil Institute for the Deaf in The Netherlands.(www.fbg.nl/48558)It is the world's leading oral education institution where teachers from all over the world (mostly from the third world countries) come to be trained to apply the oral method. I saw how they enshrined AGB on campus.
I had an opportunity to observe the students at St. Michelgistel. They spoke in exclusively Dutch, and international visitors who did not understand the Dutch language had to accept whatever seemed to work at St. Michielgestil.
AGB is the world-wide Hearing Supremacy organization.

Awesome... It is really important to continue and educate more people the truth behind the whole picture of Deaf education.

Thanks for doing it - you are one perfect example to preserve ASL! :)

Jay said...

Well done! I thought I have known this stuff, but still am amazed to learn yet more things. Your displays of historical artifacts are champs!

I am so thrilled about your blog and it tickles me with joy! You are the beacon to the world as Gallaudet has forsaken and left the Deaf people into AGBs hands too long. I found out a new breed of Deaf people from RIT are doing what Veditz has left off.

The RIT volcano just erupted.

Way to go RIT'ers!!!

Hi, Martha,

I have tried to watch your fabulous video, but I got distracted over and over with my dear kids last night. I was so curious, but I knew it was wrong time... BUT, this morning, I tried several times before I finally watched the WHOLE flim without distrubtion! :D AWESOME,smile! I almost got knocked out, but I m ok, smile.

Yes, I learned something about this guy, Veditz today.

Good job, Martha! Hope you could keep it up with good work.

I would like to comment of Carl Schroeder... About St. Michielgestel Institute School for the Deaf was formerly Oral school.. You were right... However... After 1990, I believe, but I dont remember which year was that... St. Michelgestel Institute School for the Deaf decide to change from Oral to Sign Language... They are doing now both speech and sign language same time... St. Michelgestel Institute School for the Deaf is no longer ORAL school...
That what I learn from someone in Holland. ... Carl, hope you learn something new, too...

Long live Sign Language!!!!!

Regina said...

Wow. Champ! The way you presented and the design of the vlog are appealing! I truly enjoyed this film even though i know about Veditz and A.G. Bell. Great work!

DeafLady Rock !

I was Oral Deaf School at Scranton,Pa. when I was 3 til 13 yrs old ( Oral Raised ) to changed Total Communication. I missed alot of education,becuz of Oral's brain wash to speak speak speak and no learn of reading,english,math,SS and etc as How Can We understood with no SIGNS ? Big DUH
Look at my 3 deaf sons raised by ASL with BI BI and Great Eduations ! I envy them !
Hello to GOD, Please Grant Our ASL's Bless ! Wisdom Know this Different.

Example: Some Hearing cant learn sign as WHY ? Same with Some Deaf cant learn Oral as WHY ?
Who born and God gift You Who You Are...

Who try to control Deaf World for ORAL that is part of Crime !

**God dislike KKK,Nazi,Cult and etc.

Keep ASL Spirit !

Like what Veditz said "As long there are Deaf people on Earth, we always have sign language", therefore God created us, the Deaf people. Amen!

Amen! God creats Deaf People for His Glory. He does not give the Deaf People the limit but He gives us the Beautiful Language which is the Fantastic Accessibility.

Another young Lynn Jacobowitz!

Great vlog! Great display of artifacts! Feedback: the term "American Sign Language" did not emerge until 1965 with Stokoe, Casterline & Croneberg, thus Veditz's crusade was on The Sign Language. Also it would be great if you had references so that viewers can read up on Deaf History. Again, great job!
