2.0

Let's just preface this with I only read this book because I agreed it was only reasonable to judge him after reading his book. His Deaf U crimes set aside...

The book was bit self-[redacted] and written more for the hearie audience in mind. Did not really provide me with any additional context about the wider Deaf community that may have benefited or interested me. At times bordering on disability inspiration porn. Also Nyle also presented a lack of self awareness and self reflection when he more or less shrugged off how a black woman was very upset that part of her hair was shaved off for America's Next Top Model and more or less said so? I'm Deaf. I too am Deaf and I don't have the privilege of coming from a multi-generation Deaf family. No, my family is all hearing. It's rather horrifying at times. Anyways, let's just say I would be more distraught over having half of my hair shaved of than I ever been about my deafness and the fact that my cochleas never worked.

Also, the way sign language was portrayed in the book was quite strange to me. 

Only plus was the book was rather readable and easy to burn through. 

It will be interesting to see if he can start to redeem himself with the Deaf President Now documentary that's coming out soon.
