FS practice #32

Write an essay that addresses the following:

What are the cultural, emotional and actual physical consequences of voicing at a Deaf or ASL event and how do those consequences impact you personally and other people at the event and those that want to attend other times.

There is no length specification. It needs to be long enough to address all the points. This information will be commuicated to the officers at BCC's ASL club to try and help rectify the violations of the no voice code that occured on Wed, 11-16 at their silent game night.
