A vlog discussion by Carl Schroeder: Carl argues that Deaf people around the world need to identify themselves as signing people or seeing people, not hearing-challenged people.

Kalalau's Korner invites you to embark on your journey into Carl Schroeder's philosophy. Questioning and talking about ASL, short for American Sign Language, is my forte.

The census returns for 2010 for the U.S. Census of Bureau will be commencing in the early spring and ending in the late summer of 2010. An enumerator will ask you what language you speak daily. I was asked which language I utilised in 2000. I noticed that ASL was not on the list, so I inserted "ASL" and drew a mark in the box. I hope that in 2010 the Bureau will print "ASL on the list.
I'll also say that I VIEWED your vlog. Great post Carl.
I agree with you 101 percent.
Deaf is not suppose to exist! Deaf must be forgotten... My hearing friend told me several times that he forgot that I am Deaf because he and I communicate very well in ASL.
Once hearing people feel that we are like them, they will forgot that we are Deaf!
