Articulate: A Deaf Memoir of Voice

Author: Rachel Kolb

GoodReads Description:

Rachel Kolb was born profoundly deaf the same year that the Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA) was passed, and she grew up as part of the first generation of deaf people with legal
rights to accessibility services. Part memoir, part cultural exploration, Kolb details a life lived
among words in varied sensory forms and considers why and how those words matter. Told
through rich storytelling, analysis, and humor, Articulate is a linguistic coming-of-age in both
deaf and hearing worlds, challenging us to consider how language expresses our
humanity—and offering more ways we might exist together.
