DEAF BIPOC PLATFORM & ACTIVISTS ARE CHANGING THE GAME
“It is more often more important to be ahead of the majority and this means being willing to cut the first furrow in the ground and stand alone for a while if necessary.” - Patsy Mink DEAF BIPOC PLATFORM & ACTIVISTS ARE CHANGING THE GAME Sometimes illustrations help to simply things. Me: #DeafTalent Creator/BIPOC Platform (2012) Deaf coat-tailers: Colonize whitewashers/copycats/white saviors (2015 - now) Me: Trademark #DeafTalent & Deaf Talent Brand builder/Owner (2020-2021) Deaf coat-tailers/entitled without rights (Now) Me: Since they don’t do their own research, they need simple cartoon to get it, ya know? #deaf OR #talent is available to use, not #DeafTalent or Deaf Talent . Create your own #hashtag brand! You got a , use it! Stop riding on someone else’s coattail. Don’t act like an entitled, disrespectful asshole. What is a coat-tailer? Someone who rides off the coat tails of someone else to climb the 'proverbial' ladder - career, social, etc. #BlackDeafWom
