        Wow. I'm an interpreter. I never heard of her and that us sad. In 1973 and unfortunately even today there are still too few interpreters of color.

        BREAKING NEWS: Black person does something normal. Is celebrated because she's Black, because as we all know, Black people are really really incapable of doing normal things. Let's give them all a special medal!

        Um, maybe because it's generally not of much interest to people who are not related to deaf people ? Not because of color? But EVERYTHING is about color now.
