Dr. Paddy Ladd will be leading a seminar focused on Deafhood.
Paddy is a Deaf scholar, author, activist and researcher of Deaf culture. The word Deafhood was first developed by Paddy in 1993. Deafhood acknowledges that ALL Deaf people embark on a journey towards deepening and refining their Deaf selves. Many are content to reside within the “boundaries” of existing Deaf cultures, yet some press on to stretch those boundaries.
