Feature Series (Part 1 of 3) - Gallaudet University: the world's only deaf university

Gallaudet University in Washington DC is the world's first and only university for deaf students. Abraham Lincoln signed it into existence and its impact on the global deaf community has been enormous. From the radicalisation of deaf culture to the redefining 'Deaf President Now' protests of 1988, from the design ethos of deaf architecture to the aesthetics of sign language poetry and new bilingual pedagogies—join Natasha Mitchell on campus.
