Deaf Culture: Exploring Deaf Communities in the United States by Raychelle Harris, Jean F. Andrews, Irene W. Leigh

informative slow-paced

5.0

I read this as a textbook for my Deaf Culture class. It’s a very informative and easy read, detailing lots of the complexities of the Deaf community and its culture with occasional mentions of moments in Deaf history. The authors do a great job at including personal experiences and stories related to the topics to provide more than just facts and information, so the book doesn’t feel too dry or monotonous. This is an excellent book to learn more about American Sign Language and the Deaf community.
