Leah Mosier “Audism Unveiled” Due:11/16/2011 Audism to me is ignorance of people. Audism unveiled opened my eyes to many different forms of audism.

Going back in time to see how much little knowledge I have about the deaf culture is insane to think about. Everything that I have learned throughout this journey has made me a more opened minded person. I wouldn’t say that it’s just about learning a different/second language‚ unlike how most schools teach languages‚ you get to learn about the culture‚ history‚ and the people.
