Wow, what an inspirational ASL rap poem with the chants. She also provided some nice guidance on how to lead with students to copy. I just got back from Jeff Rosen’s presentation on Empowerment and Human Rights at NCOD (CSUN). He talked a lot about his involvement with DPN, and to close the night tonight with BBB-F’s powerful message sends me off barefooted in the park!
Not many people know that on Sunday, March 6, 1988 in many churches (Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Episcopal, Methodist, Presbyterian, etc.) the Gospel reading for that day was about Jesus throwing the money-changers out of the temple.
It gave me goose-pimples to see that concept actually carried out during that historic week!
You made me want to dance with you for Unity for Gallaudet!!! Unity for Gallaudet made people that they can, they can they can we can you all can!!! yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Yea..I can, YOU can and WE can..What a Electicity HandsWave!!! I have a question for Todoslavie. Just wondering if you had video on Jeff Rosen’s presentation about Empowering and Human Right at CSUN? If so, it would be nice if u could edit and share with us and watch his presentation so we can learn something from him.

i think lip movements are a huge part of asl–many deaf performance artists use them. lips are very expressive and just because it looks like an english word doesn’t make it not asl.
i thought the poem was beautiful.
your poetry is just like the little story about the blue train. There are big trains that can pull big things. They didnt think blue train fits in with them. One day, Big Trains all can’t go up the hill because of weights. Blue train is so little and fast, it carrys the heavy. It said ” I think I can, I think I can” with positive reinforcement and attitude. Having positive attitude is what encourages the blue train to go over the hill with weights on it.. As Firl says ” I can, you can, we can” because she believes in us, she have very encourage positive reinforcement. she encourages us to do it. Here comes I gonna say in return, Firl and people, I can, you can, we can!!!! ~wink~
