This short video presentation at the William J. Marra Museum of Deaf History and Deaf Culture explores the world of silence - but not the lack of opportunity. Being Deaf means living in a visual world, a world where sight takes precedence and the norm is communication through American Sign Language.
A Different Way to Hear takes you on a journey through Deaf history and Deaf culture, offering answers as to why and how the Deaf and hard of hearing communicate. The long and rich history of the Deaf community is explored through this memorable video.
