Show Me Deaf Community is a b/vlog about what I see and what the Deaf Community show me in daily life. The author is a.k.a. Deaf Advocate on other blogs.

He firmly believes in Laurent Clerc and his contributions to the New World. George Veditz is another one! He predicted videophones in 1913!

Just one word: Speechless!!
To say the least -- I am quite pensive seriously ! But, I am a Post-Polio Synrome Warrior and indeed deaf-mute and I will not give up without a fight !
Wishing you the most hugest Laurent Clerc fan & friend from Sam Dorsey's greetings, our #1 Sir !
