We are celebrating the rich cultural heritage of the deaf communities through our sign languages and cultures. Deaf Culture involves the behaviours, traditions, beliefs, values, history, humour, and art within Deaf communities. We are proud of our linguistic and cultural identities. Sign up for Sign Language rights by hosting an event today that not only demonstrates but also promotes understanding and appreciation of the rich cultures of our D/deaf communities.
Check out this video from YouTube: Iowa School for the Deaf, 3 September 2018. Culture 101. Note that the sign language is ASL (American Sign Language) with captions.

The answer is yes—we D/deaf people, D/deaf with disabilities, and Hard of Hearing people do have our Culture, which is similar to other people’s cultures, for example, arts, Theatre, humour, traditions, and the list goes on.
Check out this North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services video. The sign language is in ASL (American Sign Language) with captions. https://youtu.be/p0rDLb4qrU8?si=aWbrbjvhRQZQZTzr
My daily life is pretty much the same Culture where I live in the middle of two worlds—the deaf world and the hearing world. My partner is hearing, and we have three dogs as assistance/working dogs for me. My favourite relaxing are gardening, reading, blogs, and spending time with my partner and dogs.
