That too is something that is difficult for those within the deaf community. Cheyenna's point cannot be interpreted as well as it should be due to lack of interpreters and/or their ability. It's super difficult, and it makes me really sad.
1. If you have a deaf child, let them become a Deaf child :) give them access to their language and community, which has a rich culture and strong history. 2. If you have deaf friends, include them! Make sure that you can be available to them to communicate so that they don’t feel lonely. 3. Hire qualified interpreters. Don’t let your employee’s sibling do it because they say they have a deaf cousin and they’ll do it for free. Did I miss anything? :) Thanks for the tips, Cheyenna!
It's a decent twitter-style summary :) But as is so often the case, if one wants the full details and nuance, and understand all the complexity of the topic, one has to watch the talk with own eyes.
Great talk Cheyenna, lots for us to think about! Really enjoyed watching you on DeafU too!! Keep up the great work you're doing to spread awareness!! :D
Cheyenna is a very well spoken woman but, the interpreter they got for this performance does not do her justice.. this was kind of disappointing to see honestly.
Agreed. I know interpreting is hard, but I love Cheyenna and I wish they had been able to find someone who could sort of match her charisma and intellect so that those who dont sign could still experience how wonderful she is!!
It now has over 50,000 views and I just shared it on Facebook. My hearing friends won’t know the difference if the interpreter is bad. Hopefully they will take the message to heart because it is excellent.
If someone doesn't speak English but speaks Spanish, we don't think so much about the fact that we can't understand each other. But when someone's language is ASL, for some reason its seemed as other. It's really no different. Just another language.

I wish this had better captions.
Leaf Larkin The issue is probably with the interpreter. She seems to be nervous and unsure at times about what the lecturer is saying.

Leaf Larkin me too
Not hard to pick up ASL, she’s pretty much using her body language.
Same.

Great presentation Cheyenna! 👍
I listened to this once with the sound, once without
and as a hearing person who's studying ASL, it was very cool.
Thank you for this TED talk

oh she also did ted Ed wOw
Bravo Cheyenna!!!
Very informative and enjoyable good job Chey
What a camera fail, the extended holds from the back of the auditorium. Audism right there. Excellent presentation when I could see it!
Love her!!

The interpreter on the cut channel was more charismatic
TEDx Talks has 18 million subscribers but this doesn’t even have 10 000 views. I don’t know how to feel about this...
Atte Kolehmainen This video has more views then most recent videos ... Ted x talks are just not going so well in general.
Easy. Most will will just subscribe to feel smart and know is Ted talk but in reality they go either makeup (women) and youtube "comedians".

I watched her youtube
indra kusuma sameee
I love her.
They should have stayed with the close up, front perspective that clearly showed what she was signing ,all the time.
Its so far away most of the time, should have been / stayed closer with a straight on view
This is an amazing message thank you. I hope it will be redone with better camera work and captioning ❤
Yeah it happened in my home city as well
The video is keep moving that making it very deaf unfriendly. Deaf need to see the sign clearly.
Amazing talk from Cheyenna... Unfortunate that the interpreter and captions are not really at her level and don't do it justice.

Hey

Why the absolute heck does the angle keep changing? 😑
Nice
She signs so fast 😅 the interpreter struggled to keep up
This interpreter is not it chief 😴
Awful interpreter
Thanks for the lovely wardrobe malfunction❤
