We discovered that few people tried to “threaten” some hearing people not to attend AGB conference this summer. We do not accept this behavior and we strongly encourage them to attend the convention instead. It is just because DBC is planning to have a conference at the same time so they can educate hearing people more about deafhood and other important deaf-related information.
Also, please do not inform people that DBC is against people with CIs. The only thing DBC want to do is to convince AGB to allow babies from six to twenty-four months to learn sign language before they are able to talk.
