Deaf Utopia, signed as DEAF WORLD was created by Angela Petrone Stratiy as an independent business. Angela dreams of a better world for Deaf people away from the obstacles in our everyday lives. An ideal world is free of oppression, discrimination, and misconceptions. “The concept of place is so central to the lives of America’s [and Canada’s] Deaf people that a utopian vision of a “Deaf Country, ” one created by and for the Deaf, has long played a role in American Deaf culture.” (A Journey Into the Deaf-World by Harlan Lane, Robert Hoffmeister and Ben Bahan) Workshops on ASL (American Sign Language) and Deaf culture are provided. Workshops focused on teaching ASL classifiers, working with participants to identify and produce appropriate classifiers and facial grammar, to interpret from English to ASL using appropriate classifiers and to practice with the Deaf. Activities will be: lecture on the functions of ASL classifiers and the sequence of learning ASL classifiers – hands on activities, discussion, drills, question and answer period, and working with videos Also other workshop topics – Deaf Culture and Teaching Tips.
