Deaf culture fades

Deaf culture fades

BY JEFF KUNERTH, website
The Orlando Sentinel, February 1, 2005

ORLANDO, Fla. - (KRT) - In Philadelphia, where Jim Schooley grew up, there were four different deaf clubs. They sponsored basketball and baseball teams. There were pool tables and dart boards. During Christmas, a deaf Santa handed out presents to the children.

The deaf clubs were the center of the deaf community, the portals through which the deaf became indoctrinated into deaf culture.

Not any more. Throughout the nation, deaf clubs are on the decline. The younger deaf are eschewing the deaf clubs of their parents for the Internet, text-messaging and e-mail.
