Heyyy there everyone! @deafgirlhistory is here! OK so...recently I posted an comment about an Deaf man named Douglas Tilden (1860-1935), some people are looking forward to my next comment about deaf people, I wouldn`t want people here waiting for long, haha! But here`s is another one is....Julia Brace (1807-1884) was Deaf-Blind. I`m just super excited that people are interested in my Deaf history! That`s it for today!

Hey that's actually really cool! I'm thinking of giving cool facts about dinosaurs! It's so nice you're going this; giving recognition to those that many don't know about!
