Drmzz of "Oh I See" deaf blogger/vlogger recently exposed Alexander Graham Bell Association of the Deaf (AGBAD)'s sinister ploys of requesting the Hyatt hotel and Midway Center to close off the walkway between those public places. AGBAD would do anything to spew its own ideology and belief to clutch into unaware parents of deaf youngsters and babies from opening their own eyes what is really going on with cochlear implant and importance of language acquisition thru visual means.

We must do diligently and intellectually without the Alexander Graham Bell Association of the Deaf (AGBAD) successfully distort and smear deaf people as some kind of Neathederals or anti-progress movement.

  1. Thanks for the email addresses. After sending my letter to the original writer, I sent copies to the additional names you gave. Hopefully the avalanche of similar letters will result in more balanced reporting.
