What I want hearing people to know about Deaf people, by Lucy.
For International Week of the Deaf 2020, Lucy, age 12, has one important thing she wants hearing people to know about Deaf people.
[A 12-year-old Black girl is standing in front of a coral-colored wall. She is wearing a blue dress and glasses and has her hair pulled up into a high bun. To her left is a window and a sign that says “Hope” over a rainbow-striped heart].
Hi everyone, my name is [spells] L-U-C-Y [shows sign name]. It’s International Deaf Awareness Week.
I know many people have many questions. We are going to answer them this week.
What do I want hearing people to know about Deaf people?
There are so many different people who consider themselves Deaf. Some can speak, some can hear a little bit, some of them are blind. Deaf people have all different identities, but we still call ourselves Deaf because it’s one of the most important parts of who we are.

Para la Semana de Concienciación de la Sordera 2020, Lucy, 12 años, quiere que la gente oyente sepa algo importante sobre las personas sordas
[Una niña negra de 12 años está parada delante de una pared de color coral. Lleva lentes y un vestido azul y tiene el pelo recogido en un moño alto. A su izquierda hay una ventana y un rótulo con la palabra "Hope" (Esperanza) encima de un corazón rayado de un arco iris]
Hola a todos, mi nombre es [deletreando] L-U-C-Y [ella muestra su nombre en señas]. Es la Semana de Concienciación de la Sordera Internacional.
Sé que mucha gente tiene muchas preguntas. Vamos a contestarlas esta semana.
¿Qué quiero que la gente sepa sobre las personas sordas?
Hay tantas personas diversas que se identifican como personas sordas. Algunas pueden hablar, algunas pueden oír un poco, algunas son ciegas. Las personas sordas tienen diferentes identidades, pero aún así, nos consideramos personas sordas porque es una de las partes más importantes de quiénes somos.
