The Quiet Ear
Come along to see Raymond Antrobus in conversation with Joe Dunthorne
About This Event
THE QUIET EAR tells the story of Raymond’s upbringing at the intersection of race and disability. Growing up in Hackney to an English mother and Jamaican father, educated in both mainstream and deaf schooling systems, Raymond explores the shame of miscommunication and the joy of finding community, and shines a light on the decline of deaf education in Britain. Throughout, Raymond sets his story alongside those of other D/deaf cultural figures, from painters to silent film stars, poets to performers – the inspiring models of D/deaf creativity he did not have growing up.
