  • "Exploring nearly 200 years of Deaf life in America, this film presents the shared experiences of American history--family life, education, work, and community connections--from the perspective of deaf citizens. Interviews include community leaders, historians, and deaf Americans with diverse views on language use, technology, and identity. The documentary also takes a straightforward look at life for people who are part of the cultural-linguistic group who use American Sign Language and often define themselves as "Deaf" with a capital and cultural "D" and deaf people who, for a variety of reasons, do not identify with the Deaf cultural community. The history often shows that intersections between deaf and Deaf people are many and that oppression and discrimination are common experiences."

  • "This program explores nearly 200 years of Deaf life in America and presents a broad range of perspectives on what it means to be deaf. The film is propelled by the personal stories of people, both eminent and ordinary, and sheds light on events that have shaped Deaf lives: the creation of schools for deaf students; the debate over American Sign Language; the campaign for a deaf-friendly telephone: the TTY; and the fight for a deaf president at Gallaudet University. Includes interviews with actor Marlee Matlin, I. King Jordan, community leaders, historians, and deaf Americans with diverse views on language use, technology, and identity. Six artistic works by Deaf media artists are woven throughout and complement the core message of the film."
