What you have in your hands is a bomb. But it is the kind you need to hold on to for dear life, not run away from.From the Foreword, John Lee ClarkChristopher Jon Heuer lost his hearing early, but not before being able to hear a lot as a kid. He also received a good education, both in a speechoriented setting and a signing environment. These varied experiences provided him with the perfect background to write about biases he faced, not only those of a mostly oblivious hearing society, but also those of ideologically restrictive members of the Deaf community. BUG: Deaf Identity and Internal Revolution combines new work of Heuers with his best columns from The Tactile Mind Weekly and the National Association of the Deafs Mind Over Matter. He addresses all topics exit interviews, baldness, faith healing, marriage, cats, Christmas trips, backyard campfires in boxer shorts with a withering wit that spares no aspect of life and deafness.Being bugged for Heuer began early: When I was growing up, my mothers response to every problem I had was: Well, he just needs to adjust to his deafness. Bloody nose? Chris, you need to adjust to your deafness. Homework not done? I know its hard adjusting to your deafness, honey, but .... Acne scarring? Lots of teenagers get zits, Chris. I know its hard for you, dealing with this while trying to adjust to your .... He rebelled then, and continues through his evenhanded irreverence in BUG, a bomb that should go off in everyones consciousness about being deaf and Deaf.
