Watch the BSL videos of the stories, poems and essays in the book What Meets the Eye? The Deaf Perspective. If you would like to support this (very expensive! non-profit making) project, you can donate here
We are gradually adding these videos as we get them, and will replace uncaptioned ones with captioned, as soon as we can afford to do them.
