Last Friday, Gallaudet University partnered with Apple TV+ for an exclusive screening of the documentary “Deaf President Now!” This event gathered students, faculty, staff, filmmakers, and distinguished guests to explore one of the most significant movements in the Deaf community’s history. The documentary highlights the landmark protests of 1988, when Gallaudet students demanded the appointment of a Deaf president for the university, marking a pivotal moment in advocacy for Deaf rights and representation. Attendees left with a deeper understanding of their history and the lasting impact of “Deaf President Now!” Special thanks to co-directors Nyle DiMarco, ‘13, and Davis Guggenheim, as well as Apple TV+, Concordia Studios, and all involved in making this event possible. “Deaf President Now!” will premiere on Apple TV+ on May 16, 2025. #DeafPresidentNow #DPN4
