Will Audism stop and how can we prevent it?
A boy that attended American school of the deaf was tazed by two police officers.
He thought that the deaf could not learn because they couldn't hear.He also referred the deaf as "non-persons".
Wasn't founded until 1975 by a professor at Gallaudet. As you can see Audism has been around way prior to the creation of the word.
Hitler targeted not only the Jewish people but the handicapped and the deaf.
In 1939 the T4 program was introduced which meant that deaf could be taken from anywhere they were living and be taken into a hospital and killed. 25,000 deaf people killed with only 20 still living today.
Audism is the discrimination and the notion of feeling more powerful and intelligent as opposed to someone that has the ability to hear when the deaf cannot.
The first recorded deaf person was biblical times in which Jesus healed the man who couldn't hear. It was even written in Hebrew law that deaf had limited rights in marriage and owning land.
