Ethnocentrism is a general term to describe how one thinks his/her culture is superior than the others.<BR/><BR/>Hi Laura,<BR/><BR/>I am so glad you got to read my blog and thank you for your reply about clarifying on Gallaudet FAQ website to correct the error that it was Humphries instead of Zak who wrote the definition.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05468248139421077835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37179429.post-82093788387603978092009-04-08T09:37:00.000-04:002009-04-08T09:37:00.000-04:00Thanks for the suggestion about Gallaudet's Audism...Thanks for the suggestion about Gallaudet's Audism FAQ -- we're glad people are reading our web pages! The original version was posted before Tom Humphries' dissertation became widely available, and the FAQ author did indeed include that Harlan Lane credited Humphries with creating the word.<BR/><BR/>We're happy to verify that Humphries coined “audism” and have revised our web page to make this more prominent.<BR/><BR/>Laura Jacobi -- Gallaudet University LibraryLaura Jacobihttp://library.gallaudet.edunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37179429.post-27093827612465759132009-04-03T22:44:00.000-04:002009-04-03T22:44:00.000-04:00Barb, an excellent discussion on the term "audism"...Barb, an excellent discussion on the term "audism"... you made it clear that it is a legitimate term by itself, and to me, it CANNOT be confused with ethnocentrism. The two are NOT interchangeable. They are each distinct behaviours fueled by prejudice. <BR/><BR/>I haven't yet read your next post. I'm going there now. <BR/><BR/>ShelShelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01658793792301980725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37179429.post-36749579068896522312009-04-03T14:34:00.000-04:002009-04-03T14:34:00.000-04:00I don't know what happened with Disqus comments as...I don't know what happened with Disqus comments as it didn't come out so I apologize for making it difficult for you to leave comments.
