Rittenhouse, Robert K.; And Others

American Annals of the Deaf, v136 n5 p392-400 Dec 1991

This paper traces the political and educational movements of both African-American and hearing-impaired U.S. individuals since 1960 and compares their common as well as disparate experiences in terms of social and political background, social attitudes, family relationships, education, and employment. Four suggestions are offered for advancing the agenda of African-American hearing-impaired individuals. (Author/JDD)
