“Being deaf is not a weakness or it shouldn’t be seen as one and that’s what I wanted to get across that day. It’s still what I want people to see. It’s the same thing with the special needs kids. They are no different than I am, than anyone is really.

We’re not weak or what’s wrong with the world.”

No, instead they’ve got to go out of their way to call attention to the things that set us apart from them instead of embracing the ways we’re the same.”
