Summary:
Audism is the notion that one is superior based on one's ability to hear and speak or to behave in the manner of one who hears and speaks. This documentary uses real life experiences from Deaf people of varied social, racial, and educational backgrounds to show how audism does lasting damage. As they share their struggles with this emotionally charged societal bias, they reveal the scars that may never heal. -- Adapted from container.
