PST-213 Black Deaf History 1818 – 1890 (3)
Email Us
This course examines the presence of Black Deaf people in Deaf history, beginning with the first student to receive a formal education at a school for the Deaf. Starting with a theoretical survey of the condition of being a black person during slavery, Reconstruction era and colonialism, the course concludes with a discussion of the Reconstruction era decision to provide education for Black Deaf students in the South.
