		<description><![CDATA[Jean Boutcher announced due to her reasoning of a quote taken out of context, I am implying that AGBell was a pro ASL supporter. In her blog: MZ, In your blog entry, Against ASL and Deaf Culture, you say, &#8220;If someone is fluent in ASL, how can using the language show the person biased? I would think if [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My eyes filling with tears, I feel deep pain for Jack Barr while he shared his horrific experiences at the oral school he attended. Too many innocent deaf children have received brutal treatment at the hands of hearing educators and speech therapists trying to force them to speak and hear/lipread.  Children&#8217;s hands being tied, their mouths scrubbed [...]]]></description>
