Grumpy Old Deafies

Connecting Bristol introduced Jeff McWhinney as a guest vlogger, in recognition of Deaf Awarness week. Jeff's first post is introductory and introduces a Festival of Ideas.

The first video in the post is in BSL, which is good (more BSL online please):

For those of you who don't understand BSL, the original post has English text underneath. Unfortunately the second video is neither subtitled or signed, thus I'm not sure what its about apart from a statement on social enterpreneurs and a link to Innovation Exchange.

This begs a wider question, who exactly is Deaf Awareness week for? And what's its aim? Something I want to touch on in another post.

Ask the Readers:
What does Deaf Awareness week mean to you? Is it a waste of time?
