  • ""When the Mind hears is a study of the history of Deaf people in Europe and America. Told largely from the vantage point of Laurent Clerc, the narrative skillfully traces the beginnings of formal education for Deaf students in France and in the U.S. Sadly, the story is also a study of prejudice and oppression for almost 200 years as 'educators' have sought to abolish Sign Language and have denied Deaf people the right of self-determination."--Back of container."
