Bonnie Kraft's video treats the delicate subject of codas with the healing touch of humor. CODAS--the children of Deaf adults--enter the world as hearing infants destined to grow up with two cultures and two different languages. Watch and listen to Bonnie's wise and witty accounts of a quiet father, a mischievous mother, and the mentors she found in Deaf clubs. She signs her true stories with humor, covering serious issues: "CODA is My Deaf Club," "Telephone Nightmares," "No Interpretation Required," "Mama Speaks" and many more.
In an interview with Gallaudet Deaf Studies Professor Ben Bahan, she discusses: Cross-cultural aspects of the worlds of ASL & spoken English; A coda's view of the Deaf world; Behaviors, beliefs, and attitudes of hearing people.
Sidesplitting, heart-tugging, educational entertainment!
