[love-and-insurmountable-grief]

I’m not even finished with this book yet, but I have to say this:

John Lee Clark’s “Where I Stand: On the Signing Community and My DeafBlind Experience” is an incredible book. I think that anyone with any disability may find this book as relatable as I have, as a hearing-sighted person with AuDHD and a slow processing speed. Where I Stand is a necessary read.

Thank y’all for reading 💙

P.S. I feel recognized as a twice-exceptional student in the chapter “unreasonable effort”, which discusses the struggles unduly put upon DeafBlind students in school systems that weren’t built for them. 💙

P.P.S. PLEASE read this book
