Did you see/hear about the silent commercial portraying a Deaf joke during the Super Bowl??? View the commercial here. http://www.pepsiusa.com/entertainment/tv_ads/index.php?or=pw.1038
Well, guess what? The AG Bell Association has asked its members to send a letter to Pepsi Co AGAINST this deaf ad. Thousands of emails were sent out to AG Bell members. You know of course that AG Bell supporters are against ASL use; so you can only imagine the types of responses Pepsi Co will receive.
Here is the letter from AG Bell.....http://www.agbell.org/uploads/Pepsi3ltr.pdf
Please show your support of bringing Deaf Culture and ASL into the mainstream by sending Pepsi a letter thanking them. You can go to http://www.pepsiusa.com/help/help.php?or= and leave a comment on the Pepsi site.
