GOALS FOR THE LECTURE
What?
So What?
Now What?
![Page 5: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
“What?”: What is an Ally? How does a Ally behave?
“So What?”: Implications for education, interpreting, research
“Now What”: What can we do to work as
Allies?

WHAT?
![Page 7: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
WHAT IS AN ALLY?
An Ally is someone who advocates for and supports members of a community other than their own.
Allies for the Deaf respect our differences and work with deaf people to achieve mutual goals.
![Page 8: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Allies acknowledge we are different in some ways and alike in other ways.
Allies solve problems together.
Allies work together as peers toward common goals.

EXAMPLE:
The National Center for Deaf Research in Rochester, New York has Deaf and Hearing people who work together. There were many problems and frustrations.
We formed a group of Deaf and Hearing people who worked together to investigate why we were having so many problems.
![Page 10: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
We worked for a month to interview all the people, collected data in American Sign Language and English, analyzed the data and found what problems existed.
We worked to report our results to the whole National Center for Deaf Health Research Center staff.
We then held meetings to solve the problems together.

A QUICK REVIEW…CHANGING THE SUBJECT

THE SPEECH BANANA
Shows frequencies and amplitudes of the sounds of the English Language.
Shows the frequencies and amplitudes of some environmental noises.
Compares that with the level of hearing loss. Note: even mild hearing loss makes it
impossible to hear some sounds.
![Page 15: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
THE “MEDICAL PERSPECTIVE”:
Deafness is an illness or a condition.
Deafness is a disability.
Deafness should be cured if possible.
![Page 16: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
THE “ALLY PERSPECTIVE”
Deafness means you cannot hear. Deaf people have a communication
difference. Sign Language is a valuable, complete and
expressive language. Deaf people and hearing people are equals
and peers. Deaf people are not ‘broken’. They do not
need to be fixed.
![Page 17: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
SO WHAT?What does the perspective of ‘Ally’ Mean in Education, Interpreting and Research?
![Page 18: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
“THE DEAF WAY”
Using the ‘natural language’ of Deaf people. Visual Expressive Grammar and Syntax of Sign Language “setting up”

AN EXAMPLEComparing the difference between
“Signing in English” and American Sign Language with a story.
![Page 20: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Signing the words from a book in English.
I will use the grammar and structure of English and signs ‘borrowed’ from
American Sign Language.
![Page 21: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
WHAT IS THE STORY?
![Page 22: L ESSONS F ROM THE F IELD : A N A LLY TO THE D EAF C OMMUNITY IN THE U NITED S TATES Elizabeth G Finigan, MD.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649eda5503460f94bea0af/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Now I will sign the same story using American Sign Language and the concepts of: “setting up”
