Deaf Customers Sue Starbucks Over Mocking

Deaf customers sue Starbucks, claim discrimination. Starbucks employees allegedly laughed at speech of hearing impaired customers in New York City.



NEW YORK CITY - Twelve Deaf Starbucks customers in New York City have filed a lawsuit against the Seattle-based coffee company, claiming discrimination. Starbucks employees allegedly mocked the customers multiple times over the course of several years, and once called the police on a monthly meeting of Deaf people.



"Cruel Employees" at two different Manhattan Starbucks mocked Deaf customers and refused to serve them, a stunning new lawsuit says.



"They were ridiculed, laughed at and told they had to leave Starbucks," said lawyer Eric Baum, who's suing on behalf of a dozen Deaf customers.



Jamie Riley, a spokeswoman for the mega-popular coffee chain, said they were aware of the allegations and were investigating them. "Discrimination of any kind is unacceptable at Starbucks," she said.



The suit says one incident took place at a Starbucks at 424 Park Ave. South in August 2012, when customer Alan Roth said a barista laughed when he placed his order, telling him he "sounded funny."



She "asked him to continually repeat himself as she laughed harder each time," and she was soon laughing "hysterically," the suit says.



When Roth demanded to speak to a manager, the employee started screaming obscenities at him and had to be restrained by other Starbucks staff, the suit says. Another employee told Roth to leave and never come back, the suit says.



Roth said he had "never before been so blatantly and maliciously been discriminated against."



The suit says Deaf customers also were forced to leave and had the cops called on them another time at the 13-25 Astor Place location, which had been chosen as the monthly gathering spot for an informal "Deaf Chat Coffee" social group.

This didn't come out completely as I planned, but I guess the gist of my message is there. I just think it's important to remember that you're 'famous' because of ASL... and now you are not including the Deaf community in your new endeavors at all.



It seems sort of ironic that by wanting to become a part of the YouTube community, you are saying goodbye to another one (maybe not personally, but publicly as a YouTube figure). As a hearing person, I can't speak for Deaf people, but I think this is the reason why they're sometimes hesitant about hearing people entering/representing their community. Maybe you could try to do some vlogs about Deaf related things, or include them somehow.



Allyballybabe has something in her YouTube "about me" that I've always liked: "one more thing i am very concerned about. though ASL is extremely beautiful and interesting, it is important to remember WHERE and WHO ASL came from... the Deaf. " Just some thoughts.

Wow! What a response. Just couldn't wait another week to follow-up. In this video I respond to some of these responses, give some more detailed thoughts on my work and Deaf community, and challenge you all to our first creative collaboration!



QUESTION: What would you like me to call you, my community?



CHALLENGE: Perform "Party in the USA" in sign language and video respond to this video or my original ASL video. You can start from my gloss, but I encourage your too add your own unique spin! Two weeks from now I'll cut your performances together into a collage with each line from a different person.

When Haters Gonna Still Hate, Stop The Deaf Bullies

VIDEO: The Vlogsphere/Blogsphere are so obsessed with Sloan Churman's inspiring video where Sarah Churman hears her own voice for the first time after a lifetime of being Deaf as seen on 29 Year Old Deaf Woman Hears Herself For The First Time which still debating on the internet.



The several people most assumed and accusations that hearing impaired that did the comments under Sloan Churman's inspiring video for instance, The Damage Has Been Done! which is absolutely no proven by hearing impaired people that did this. What. 50K comments, majority of hearing impaired people attacking?.. 50K? oh puh-eeease.



Some time passed before I found an excellent example of the earlier point as similar of the videos.



An amazing and touching video of a young woman turning on her passionate message on Youtube whereas a simple, "Stop The Deaf Bullies Video" posted by Emily Darcy which she is implantable hearing as Sarah Churman would have been both sufficient and polite, many people chose to turn the video's comment section into their own personal political platform. Several of them did it in the most tactless way possible, offering up flat out insults and not even constructive points. Many people even attacked the beliefs of the videos, therefore, there's no difference between these the videos.



But then the sad thing is that you'll get your usual haters in the comment section as always by a bunch of idiots and then you have a bunch of ignorant like naysayers, haters and extremist people who can't even understand that Deaf/HH people can speaks out how they feels. You'll have to spend some time to find and read those nasty comments as you can seen on: Stop The Deaf Bullies -All Comments



The original video - Stop The Deaf Bullies.

There was a competition to make a video about the 'Deaf bullying' so I thought to make one because I'm also Deaf and just showing the haters out there what being Deaf is really like. Bullying the Deaf people is pathetic because it's not their fault for being Deaf. I hope all of you's understand this video cause basically of the Deaf people do get bullied for it, but look, we've got the most amazing life.



For your information, DYV posted this article, anyhow, When Haters Gonna Still Hate And The Clueless Ones Continue To Be Clueless known as blogger kokonutpundits realized and changed the story to cover it up as continued biased editing is bringing it and contributors into disrepute after we posted this issued, You can see kokonutpundits' ingorant comment on theholism's blog article "The Damage Has Been Done". It's obvious stereotypical. As seen on Ridor9th's vlog related this issue: October 18, 2011 Tidbits - This is for you, Mickey Mouse (KokonutPundits)
