Abstract
Many times the discrimination experienced by individuals in the deaf and hard-of-hearing community goes unnoticed by the hearing world. This presentation will be led by the honors students from the “A Glimpse Into the Deaf Community” class. Students will share what they have learned about the intersection between race and deafness through visual arts. We will also discuss a recent case study completed on the experiences of deaf college students of color. This interactive presentation will cover important aspects of deaf culture and give participants an opportunity to self-reflect on their own understanding of hearing privilege
