Other great resources
- Gallaudet University in Washington D.C. is the only deaf/hard of hearing University in the world. Famous for many things, this university was the site of the Deaf President Now protest in 1988 where the students and faculty all walked out of class and demanded a president that represented their culture and used their language. http://www.gallaudet.edu/
- Martha's Vineyard at one time was a unique community where most of the community (hearing and deaf alike) used sign language as a main form of communication. They had their own sign language Martha's Vineyard Sign Language (MVSL) and to this day this is considered a great part of deaf history in the US. http://www.redeafined.com/2012/03/marthas-vineyard-sign-language-sign.html.
