Hi! LaRonda Zupp here. My co-workers and I are making video clips for our website at work — SJCD (St. Joseph’s Center for the Deaf, in Hayward, CA). These updates will be posted soon. I decided to post my brief introduction here on my b/vlog as a way to test it out. I thought it might be a nice way for you to get to know a little more about me. Though it is not a detailed history, it does “highlight” some of my education and work in the deaf community. It’s always nice to share introductions and background with others. I would love to learn more about you! …

Stand Silent For A Better World ~

Posted by LaRonda on May 10th, 2007

May 13, 2007, Mother’s Day, at 1pm — I invite the deaf and hearing community to stand with me as we join the other Standing Women (and men) in this positive global demonstration of our own commitment, individually and collectively, to attain a better future for our deaf and hearing children, our grandchildren and the seven generations beyond. We are not protesting anything, but rather committing to our future.

“At a time when most news is bad and people feel powerless, here comes an inspiring story of 2 grandmothers whose simple act of caring has the power to change the world. Soon they are joined by others who believe that great things are possible through a simple act of peace.

This book is written by Sharon Mehdi, a writer, teacher, healer, mother and grandmother. She has lived and worked in Egypt, Iraq, Kuwait, Lebanon, Guatemala, Mexico, Spain, France and Canada. She is a woman who believes peace is possible.”
