24 Black deaf students from Gallaudet University finally graduated after being denied their diplomas over 70 years ago! Although this is a reminder of the racial prejudice these students faced years ago, it’s beautiful to see them finally get the recognition they deserve!

“If you see someone falling behind, walk beside them.
If you see someone being ignored, find a way to include them.
If someone has been knocked down, lift them up.
Always remind people of their worth.
One small act could mean the world to them” —Unknown

Returning to the South reminds me of the hidden curriculum & school-to-prison pipeline that oppresses Black deaf students from success. “Proposals for addressing issues of racial equity and fairness have not tended to benefit the poor and non-white when left to states to decide.”
