Lesson 8 Deaf Video:

The video is about a day in the life of a deaf person. It shows all these different perspectives. It starts with getting up and brushing teeth ect. Then it talks about what they do at school. After that it gets into personality, what the people are like, what they like to do. Then they talk about how they communicate with their friends, and how they meet new people. They are friends with both hearing and deaf. It also talks about the challenges of ordering food. 

I love that the video shows different perspectives. This makes it much more well rounded. You can see each of their interactions in the world. I think its great that a lot of people who didn't know sign that knew people who were deaf were willing to learn. Its great to have a balance of communication between both parties. It sucks that they have such difficulty communicating when they go out to eat. I knew most of this because I am such close friends with someone who is deaf, but I did get so see into the lives of other people.
