Resources available on his website include several recorded comedy and improv shows; free previews of his \"Winkshop\" workshops designed for ASL professionals and students; links to online courses for purchase; information on his DVD, video and writing publications; and a link to his YouTube page. His collaboration with The Sixth Floor Museum, alongside his efforts to share and raise awareness about effective communication within and beyond the ASL community, highlights the need for educational institutions to foster equal learning opportunities for all groups. - Riley Harris, Collections Cataloger"]},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"72793"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"Duration: 46 Minutes"},"height":{"label":"Height","value":["0E-10"]}}]}
