Obama does sign language

Thursday, March 22, 2012


So this happened: Stephon, a 26-year-old deaf student at Prince George's Community College, interacts with President Barack Obama in American Sign Language.

Stephon says:
The moment I will never forget was when he looked at me. He gave me a chance to talk to him. It was like he was waiting for me to say something. I took the moment and signed "I am proud of you," and his response was "Thank u" in sign language back! Oh my gosh! I was like wow! He understood me after I said I was proud of him. It was so amazing…I was just speechless.

Disgusting comments. Can't just let someone enjoy what they feel is a special moment, can you?
