Dear Reader,

 Today I will talk about my zine and why I chose my topic. My topic for my zine is The life of sign language and it wonders. I going to talk about how sign language became a language and when, how people can be deaf either by being born that way or illness as a baby or the mother being sick while pregnant with the child or later in life slowly losing you hearing becoming deaf or hard of hearing  and other possibly that can cause someone to be deaf. There are things no one thinks about why that person is deaf. Long ago they used to say if a person was deaf, blind or hard of hearing it was because their parent sinned or they sinned to become this way and you should stay away from them because they was bad luck to be around and whoever was deaf or blind they care not faith christian because they sinned against god and god is punishing them by making them this way. But I think it funny how people long ago would say this but go make the blind see and the deaf hear again so why would he “ punish them” by making them either not hear or can not see. Then people later learned that it can be genetic and god has no control over what people are born with. With people being deaf i have seen myself that they have a stronger eye sight that people who can hear because with them not having their hearing there eye are stronger to make up for the loss of hearing. The steps I did creating my cover was something I knew would relate to the deaf community and that is one of the centers of the deaf community and is important to them.
