I am learning BSL because of a film. Yes, I am that person who is easily swayed by media. 

I watched the film Coda  about a hearing girl in a deaf family and how she was relied on to communicate for their business. 

I am a business advisor and it struck me that there could be businesses in the same situation. So I thought I'd try to learn the basics in case I came across a situation that they could help in.

Now having read the page on Audism I'm a bit terrified I'm going fall into some of those traps: trying to help when it isn't wanted or needed and makes people feel worse not better. 

I guess for now I'm going to learn for the love of learning and hope one day it comes in useful for the right reasons. 

I'm Lucinda, I'm learning BSL in my downtime between client projects.
