Ashley and Jessica Gosset are sisters. Jess is deaf, Ash is not, and both are hilarious. Their social media accounts focus on “Adoption, Infertility, Deaf awareness, and Family.” Using humor, they address many of the challenges of being deaf in a hearing society. Ash is a perfect “straight actor” for her deaf sister. Or is Jess the straight actor for Ash? We may never know because the two are perfect together. One of the challenges deaf people face is with pronunciation. Because they have never heard the words, deaf speakers can only guess at how a word sounds. They use the way other people move their mouths to produce the word as a guide. In the video series, “My deaf sister mimicking me,” the sisters show how silly this can look. The family is clear in all their social media posts. The sisters are not making fun of Jess when they point out things. They are educating people who may not know a deaf person to help them understand some of the challenges they face. A healthy belly laugh seems to be their standard approach for almost everything. They continue the mimicking lessons in part two, and there may be more in the future. In some areas of society, we are becoming more inclusive. At a Pink concert, deaf people may not be able to hear the music, but they can feel the beat. Pink also has a sign language interpreter singing the words with signs. Through smiling, joking, and having a great time, the sisters convey serious lessons in deaf awareness. The only way for Jess to learn how to pronounce new words is through this seemingly hilarious process. Laugh with them and learn! Please share.
