VASCONCELOS, Norma Abreu e Lima Maciel de Lemos; SERRANO, Elsie Alejandrina Pérez; MENDES, Enicéia Gonçalves y CAMPOS, Juliane Aparecida de Paula Perez. Stories of Deaf Leaders Lives: a Study of Their Careers in Social Movements. Rev. bras. educ. espec. [online]. 2016, vol.22, n.1, pp.79-92. ISSN 1980-5470. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1413-65382216000100007.
This article addresses stories of deaf people lives, having as main objective to analyze factors that led them to militancy and involvement with social movements, as well as the contributions brought by their consequent leaderships. As methodological procedure, we emphasized the Life History methodology, through the application of open and semi structured interviews. The results pointed as prominent factors the influence of "one other", specifically one "other deaf", the linguistic aspects, the special school for the deaf, the church and emphasis on deaf people leadership. As conclusion, the analyzed data allow us to suggest that it is important to give voice and opportunities to deaf people and to instigate society for new looks, new studies and research with new experiences, which can be used as reference to the inclusion of deaf people in social movements.
