Student Accessibility Services is sponsoring a collaboration with the Black Deaf Studies Department of Gallaudet University, the preeminent institution for the Deaf in the world.
At 2pm on February 23rd members of the Amherst College Community will be able to join a talk by Black Deaf Studies faculty titled: Black Deaf History: Reconstruction, Jim Crow, and the Post Civil Rights Era
The lecture will begin at 2pm and conclude at 3pm. There will be Q and A from 3-3:30pm. This is a virtual event, but Student Accessibility Services will be partnering with the MRC to host a viewing party in the MRC’s space in the Keefe Campus Center.
