You read about an instance of a lifeguard being asked to “interpret” for an emergency broadcast because he had a deaf brother. He likely thought he was helping, as many hearing people do. Put yourself in the shoes of a Deaf resident of that county knowing that a hurricane was imminent. What are your feelings while watching the expressions of the faces of those speaking during that broadcast and watching the “interpreting” happening alongside? Is this “equal access”? Step back into your own shoes now. What could have been done to prevent this situation from happening?​​​​
