Searching for "AG Bell" [showing recent posts first] Persona non grata
 Mike McConnell Calm down folks. Before I get any more emails (yes, I know) let me remind you that I don't have the need nor the time to watch videos that are long on hyperbole, short on facts and full of the tabloid stuff. . Not my bag no matter the subject.Next, if you like golf, technology and you have a hearing loss, maybe this bit of news will interest you.The annual conference ...Sat, Jul 31 2010 · 2 hours ago LAS VEGAS EXPO TO BREAK DEAF WORLD RECORDS
Deaf Anthology Deafnation Expo just a few days away, Deaf from all over the world are coming down to to the biggest such events since Deafway. Records will be broken, I am not talking about the attendances itself, but this is a great opportunity for us singles to meet our future spouses, so I am predicting that at least 300 Deaf couples will get married during the week, yeah, AG Bel...Tue, Jul 13 2010 AG Bell (2)- Friday Afternoon and Evening
Cacophony to Symphony On Friday afternoon, we were given the options to listen to listen to some of the speakers. They gave us a list of sessions that they though might be interesting to teens, and we signed up for the ones we wanted to go to. I went to three and they were all very good. Here is a brief summary of them:Teen Tales of Hearing LossPresenters: Melanie Paticoff, James Barden, a...Mon, Jul 12 2010 Orlando/AG Bell (1)- Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Cacophony to Symphony I'm baaack! I thought you guys would like a short summary of each things we did, from a teen attendee perspective.The convention didn't officially start until Friday, so we spent the first two days there exploring Disney. On Wednesday evening, we went to Magic Kingdom. I'm not a huge fan of rides, so we mostly marveled at the things there were to see. They also had a ...Fri, Jul 02 2010 AG Bell on AB2072
Mike McConnell The AB 2072 bill is about choices, obviously. It discusses that parents of newborns with hearing loss get information that covers,American Sign Language(ASL), Total Communication, Cued Speech, and Listening and Spoken Language communication options for children with hearing loss, including, but not limited to, information about deaf and hard-of-hearing organizations, ...Wed, Jun 23 2010 Brace Yourself

Show Me Deaf Community Alexander Graham "Bell was connected with the eugenics movement in the United States. In his lecture Memoir upon the formation of a deaf variety of the human race presented to the National Academy of Sciences on 13 November 1883 he noted that congenitally deaf parents were more likely to produce deaf children and tentatively suggested that couples where both parties w...Wed, Jun 16 2010 A (AG Bell) Conference Week-end
Miss Kat's Deaf journey So, last Saturday, I went to the Utah AG Bell conference. I will say now that, as anyone who has ever spoken to me knows, I am not a big fan of Bell himself (though, in his defense, many great minds of that time were interested in eugenics, but he targeted deaf people, and that affects me!) or of the organization (why is a organization for deaf people nearly completel...Tue, Nov 10 2009 ~Will Dr. Hurwitz help combat audism? ~
Show Me Deaf Community Will Dr. Hurwitz help combat audism?I do not know yet. His track record may be poor in combating audism. I do know from being involved in past efforts to get an alumni organization to follow the same steps that Gallaudet University adopted in 1988.I left that organization in 1980 after reading "Deaf Heritage" by Jack Gannon when it showed how hearing people behaved ...Wed, Oct 21 2009 The Answers and Wow isn’t it cool what AG Bell can do?

 Show Me Deaf Community According to the notes on researching for the upcoming film, I have noticed the methods laid out by AG Bell and his cronies. They use and still use a systematic approach to deaf education and social lives. It is also called plantation mentality. This is another form of audism.According to Dr. Harlan Lane's book, The Mask of Benevolence, audism is the hearing way of...Tue, Sep 22 2009 AFA UPDATES: INTERNAT DAY OF SL, AG BELL SAYS "NO" CI...

Jim's DEEP Thoughts Alexander Graham Bell's influences of audism is still effective even today through his organization.

Show Me Deaf Community HOW TO BREAK THE CYCLE OF AUDISM:It is time to apply the brakes on the cycle of pain, abuse and depression. Audism has played its role on the state of mental health on the majority of the deaf community globally. It can be a harder thing to apply the brakes and the cycle has been going on for the most 130 years. It has been perpetuated too long and too wrong in many ...Sun, Jul 26 2009 DBC sucks? Oh yes you bet!
Deafy DBC sucks because I think that the DBC is a dysfuntional orginzation. Going to AG Bell conferences for protest against a rally at AG Bell is ridiculous. They want to bash against AG Bell. It is senseless for them to protest a rally against AGBell. Why can't they respect thier philosphy? AG Bell didn't protest a rally against DBC because they respect DBC's philosphy.

Show Me Deaf Community In my response to AFA about AG Bell's Integrity????, AG BELL lost his integrity when he stole Meucci's telephone invention. He lied and he cheated.

It was Victorian times that influenced Bell to think above women. ...Tue, Jun 02 2009 AFA Vlog - AG Bell's Integrity????
