    Deaf Culture Book Report

    Thomas K. Holcomb’s book, Introduction to American Deaf Culture, shines a light on the deaf community and the culture they experience. The intended audience, however, is the hearing. It gives the reader insight on deaf experiences and how the atmosphere is different, even though the environment is the same. All aspects of culture are covered. The book starts off with how the culture is formed through the 5 hallmarks (p. 17). Next, the book focuses on the identity of a deaf person. This is not only limited to, labeling from the rest of the world, but also by how the person sees himself. After, the book discusses the core values the deaf community has. These values are much different when compared to the hearing community. They focus on the person engaging as a full member of society. This is done through communication, interacting, and having a sense of self-worth in the community (104-107). Eventually, literature and art are mentioned. The classifications are difficult to place. There are American works, but with the growing awareness in the recent year they have earned their own Deaf category. This is important to the deaf community because it allows “Deaf people’s lives to be better…

    deaf culture

    There have been very strong feelings throughout the Deaf Community about speech as a primary means of communication. Those who feel speech should be the primary method of communication for Deaf individuals usually consist of but are not limited to Hearing teachers, doctors, therapists, and Hearing parents. It is common for the medical model of deafness to encourage Deaf individuals and their families to use speech as the primary communication mode in order to function as much like a hearing person as possible. This ideal sends the message that deafness is a bad thing and being a hearing person is better. Deaf people do not feel the need to conform to Hearing ways in order to be considered normal by the hearing world. The Deaf Community does not consider deafness a disability as the medical model of deafness and a majority of hearing people do.…
