I’m proud to announce that I am nominating Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve on the Supreme Court. Currently serving on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, she is one of our nation’s brightest legal minds and will be an exceptional Justice. WhiteHouse.gov/KBJ

What a proud moment in our country's history, Judge Jackson's historic confirmation to the Supreme Court of the United States should serve as a powerful reminder to all of us: our democracy is strengthened when there are decision-makers who reflect the diversity of our country.
In a history-making vote, the Senate confirmed Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court. n.pr/3uiTiKZ

I’m loving the @nytimes coverage on California School for the Deaf Riverside football team & their winning streak. It couldn’t be any more clear: Deaf schools are gems for our Deaf kids - 100% communication access. nytimes.com/2021/11/15/us/ri…

We had a frank conversation w/ @CNNUnderscored about learning ASL-from whom? Many unqualified hearing ppl are teaching ASL online, like Udemy. They don’t represent the Deaf community & students lose the authenticity/culture that come from a Deaf teacher. cnn.com/2021/08/06/cnn-under…

This classifier sign language is one of example many ways to tell the story about this seed to a flower blossom. Read on the second post too, to understand that signs become a story.

We got hurt, heal, then let it go. We have to learn to let it go, and sometimes it isn't easy to do. But, it is better for our health and soul. To become strong, remember your life purpose, and everything has a reason. Note, this sign is released or let it go.

Being an ally means going beyond performative or #ExtractiveAllyship to working with us to build sustainable career paths for deaf people, and this holds true whether you're in academe, arts, business, advocacy or any other field.

My son told me the same in one of my dreams shaking me out of my deepest grief. I often ask angels to send my love to him. I imagined him receiving my surprise love notes. I bring him peace & love in my happiness. Easier said than done. I wail when I hurt. Then I stand up again

"Adverse impact of early hearing loss ... [is] now well established. Auditory deprivation is not only a hearing and language issue but also a broader brain and neurocognitive development issue." That's one of the most #ableist-loaded statements I've ever read about deaf people.

Yeah!!!
Feeling inspired, thanks to signing @starbucks recognizing Sheri Farinha @xoSheri and her work with LEAD-K legislation for deaf children’s language access! This made me feel like Deaf Community is a big part of DC. Things like this goes a long way!

We don’t really struggle with our inability to hear. It’s your ignorance:/ 🚘🦌

2020 article on deaf children has opening line, “As deaf children grow up, they face difficulties that can affect their physical, emotional, motor, and cognitive development.” So basically .... everything is wrong with us.

Deaf Gain comic: I can close my eyes, everything is silent and peaceful. Every moment wherever I go is an opportunity to meditate. It is Deaf Gain.

Finally, I finish this "Humble." it took me about two days to complete this art. it is a humble symbol as it takes a lot of patience. It is the second piece of male art that I created.
