‘Through Deaf Eyes’

“Through Deaf Eyes“ explores nearly 200 years of Deaf life in America and presents shared experiences of American history – family life, education, work, and community connections – from the perspective of deaf citizens. Actor Stockard Channing narrates the film which includes interviews with former Gallaudet University president, Dr. I. King Jordan, and actors Marlee Matlin and Bernard Bragg, as well as historians and deaf Americans with diverse views on language use, technology and identity.
