So, check this.
An
all-signing Starbucks, isn’t that the coolest?
Yeah, we have trouble getting around with our chairs sometimes, but we
never have a shortage of people, who can hear and understand us. Now, whether they choose to listen to us is
another thing, but that’s on them.
Some of the
deaf community’s at a disadvantage, because some don’t lip read and A LOT of "normal" people don’t sign. Yeah, they can carry
a pad around or have an interpreter, which’s adapting to live, which’s the
definition of a crip, but, and we can attest to this, you want to do things
without, say, a provider or, in the case of the deaf community, without an
interpreter.
D.C.’ll be
the first come October to break down that barrier for that demographic with the
hiring employees from the deaf community to cater to the deaf community’s needs…like
they did in Malaysia in ’16!
Sorry, here
I’ve got to rag on the good ol’ US of A for bringing up the ass of the parade…again. Inclusion’s all people, crip abled included.
I know it’ll
catch on, so I wonder how long it’ll be before they’re rolled out nationwide.
D.C.
readers, come October, go check it the place out, and tell us your thoughts, we’d
like to hear from you.
Be good to
each other.
