i know hearing people on this website love to pass around those posts with links to free sign language lessons but you know you need to actually put effort into learning about Deaf culture, too, right?
if you are currently learning ASL, you need to read Introduction to American Deaf Culture by Thomas K. Holcomb
resources for other Deaf cultures include, but are not limited to:
Black Deaf Culture Through the Lens of History (BASL and ASL-centric)
Understanding Deaf Culture by Paddy Ladd (which can also be found on archive.org)
Many Ways to Be Deaf: International Variation in Deaf Communities
the British Deaf Association website
directory for Deaf Australia’s “Our Deaf Ways” video podcast (presented in Auslan with audio from an interpreter and accurate closed captioning for all episodes)
The Irish Deaf Community by Patrick A. Matthews
Breaking the Silence: The Education of the Deaf in Ireland, 1816-1996
the Canadian Deaf Culture Center website
History of Hawai'i Sign Language and Hawai'i Deaf People by Barbara Earth, with Linda Lambrecht
‘We did it ourselves’: The Deaf Social Movement and the Quest for the Legal Recognition of the Libras Sign Language in Brazil
- Yolŋu Sign Language
- Article about the various sign languages within Aboriginal Australia
#u literally can’t use Aboriginal sign languages without knowing the culture there are sooooo many different languages and while some may #overlap due to close locations etc there will be different meanings (tags via @skeletonflower)
more resources, with great help from the tags:
#Hier zijn wij! Dovengemeenschap in Nederland – Bea Bouwmeester & Linde Terpstra #for the dutch deaf community (tags via @missing-a-place-ive-never-been)
Hier zijn wij! Dovengemeenschap in Nederland by Bea Bouwmeester and Linde Terpstra (for purchase via boeken and the isbn is 9789090352169 for those who want to search for it elsewhere)
#I haven’t finished it but I also HIGHLY suggest Deaf in Japan (free to borrow on the internet archive) #I used as a ref for some writing but it was also a fantastic book (tags via @dogsharks)
Deaf in Japan by Karen Nakamura (on archive.org)
on Hand Talk (aka Plains Sign Talk or First Nations Sign Language):
the website of Sacred Circle, formerly Intertribal Deaf Council (slow on updates, but is still active)
the hidden history of “Hand Talk” (video) and “Native American Hand Talkers Fight to Keep Sign Language Alive” (web article)
“The Native American Deaf Experience: Cultural, Linguistic, and Educational Perspectives,” doctoral dissertation of Sharon Baker, Ed.D.
a comparative interactive slideshow on the differences between ASL Deaf culture and First Nations Deaf Culture
more for ASL:
#queer asl is an org that teaches Deaf history in their classes! #you can take classes from anywhere cause they do it over zoom and the prices are pay what you can! (tags via @oldukrainiangentleman)
the website for Queer ASL (queerasl.com)
Bill Vicars is a face many ASL students will probably recognize from Signing Naturally textbook dvds but he also has a youtube channel where he teaches ASL, called ASLU, and an associated website, lifeprint
the National Association for the Deaf’s website has newscasts presented in ASL with strong Deaf cultural leanings; you can stay up-to-date on Deaf-lead Deaf advocacy here
#Oh I read all of For Hearing People Only #which basically is a comprehensive book on FAQ to the Deaf and HOH #it came from this magazine where you could ask questions about the culture and stuff (tags via @hopepluseggo)
For Hearing People Only (free, 3rd edition) by Matthew S. Moore & Linda Levitan, foreward by Harlan Lane
#deaf culture: exploring deaf communities in the united states (2nd edition) is a good one too (tags via @ratsquid)
Deaf Culture: Ecploring Deaf Communities in the United States, 2nd edition - was not able to find a free copy and this textbook is very expensive, comparatively, but the isbn is 9781635501735 if you want to use chegg or another website
IDK who needs to hear this but if there's something in your life that makes you feel better, but you never stick to it,
it's still actually perfectly fine to do it
and you shouldn't stop yourself from starting just because it won't be a permanent change.
Like if starting a new daily planner gives you an amazing afternoon of planning and four days where you feel in charge of your life,
why not do it?
It doesn't matter that it won't be a permanent change - 4 good days is still worth it.
If you ever catch yourself thinking, "I wish I could pray/stretch/prep/plan/do the thing, but I always get started on that and it never lasts more than a couple of days,"
what this really means is, "hey, I can feel better for a couple of days."
if this post is making you think of things in your own life that you wish you could stick to because of how good they make you feel,
just be aware:
you're not thinking of a list of ways you've failed to commit
you're thinking of a list of things that make you happy, and you should give yourself permission to start doing them as often as you want to

i feel like no one really wants to hear that sleep/exercise/nutrition/hydration are major factors in treating mental health issues bc we’ve all talked to that person who thinks your depression would be cured by one good session of goat yoga or whatever but unfortunately they do help and i’m chronically annoyed about it

ID: tags that say, "the most important thing about excercise isn't weight loss of toning or whatever, it's keeping your joints and muscles healthy and active so that they continue to function the way you need them to, plus it is SO good for people with emotional rut type brain problems to get their heart rates up and exert a few times a week, really helps get you out of the 'i'm a walking corpse' mentality, 'i just want to feel something' sweaty out of breath and a vague sense of begrudging accomplishment IS something baby!" / end
