“A knowledge of history is extremely useful; it lays before our eyes the great picture of the generations that have preceded us; and in relating the events which passed in their time…it lays before us the precepts of the wise…
of all ages…”– Laurent Clerc
Today, as C.A.N. celebrates Deaf Awareness Month, we would like to draw your attention to and express our gratitude for https://usdeafhistory.com
This site was created as a resource for folks interested in learning more about Deaf History. It is a treasure trove including an overview, people, places & things, quotes, videos, and links.
We at C.A.N. believe we need to find out where we have come from, so can figure out where we are supposed to be going. History empowers! We hope you will take time to explore this wonderful site and find some of the amazing treasures of US Deaf History!
