About this episode
The episode features discussions on Deaf culture and representation through the experiences of Deaf Black women.
Embracing Deaf Culture & Representation You can not speak about Deaf culture without having someone from the culture share their experience. I was honored to have the opportunity to hear from Bridget Lemus about her experience as a Deaf Black woman, and Epiphany Davis shared her experience as a Black woman working as an ASL interpreter. Our additional ASL interpreters are Someone Bowman and Benny Llamas.
