The Deaf community has its own culture which many of us know little about. Keeping in mind the First Unitarian Universalist Principle: “The inherent worth and dignity of every person”, let us learn more about the factual circumstances in which many Deaf community members live; which factors define this community as having its own sub-culture; and the nature of this culture — e.g. who is considered to belong and, surprisingly, who may be excluded; and the positive and negative effects new technology has on this community.

At mealtimes, Christians thank their god, while humanists thank the farmer.　 To whom or what do Unitarians give thanks?　 Where is the divinity – or the farmer – in today’s factory food?

At John and Sara’s.
