TerpTheatre @TerpTheatre Event Organizer: We're sorry, there won't be interpreters at the event where you are presenting about Deaf things, sign language, and interpreting. Me: No problem, I'll present in ASL without interpretation. Hearing people will have to get by. EO: Ummm ... TerpTheatre @TerpTheatre - I presented for 25 minutes, and opened with a couple of slides in written English that explained the situation. Told them to stay, so that they could “learn a lesson they didn't come here for." They all did.

Heidi Pitre oil painting of rubber gloves spelling out LOVE MORE in American Sign Language. The rubber gloves are in colors of the original rainbow flag.

Can we wash away hate?

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979. 

Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth. 

Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

Disabled people bring innovative thinking to organizations, and disabled-owned businesses spark unforgettable experiences. Ziryab hires Deaf and hearing employees, and one of the owners is Deaf. It’s an extremely popular restaurant in Barcelona. Why do you think that is?
