Our Deaf Ways

Introducing Our Deaf Ways

Listen on

Episode notes

The vodcast is created for Deaf, DeafBlind and hard of hearing people who use Auslan, but we also invite hearing people to watch and listen. The series doesn’t explain ‘Deaf things’ to hearing people, or communicate ‘hearing things’ to Deaf people, but seeks to share pride in Our Deaf Ways and celebrate Deaf culture and language.


Hosted by Shirley Liu, with Darlene Thornton and James Blyth.

Produced and Directed by Paula Thornton.


Deaf Australia and SBS acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and pay our respects to their Elders past and present. We extend that respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who are watching with us.


Deaf Australia and SBS celebrate Auslan and recognise all Deaf leaders in Australia who have advocated for Deaf, Deafblind and hard of hearing communities. Deaf Australia is proud of everyone’s contribution, whether big or small, in preserving our language, community and culture.
