DY DEXTERITY SINGS ‘IMAGINE’ BY JOHN LENNON | THE VOICE STAGE #24
Drawn to the stage at a young age, Andy started doing Sign Language with his mum after she had an invasive surgery and had to relearn how to use her body again. During this time, he became fascinated with the many ways with which we communicate, and decided that music and performance needed to be more inclusive of the deaf community. Incorporating signing into his performances he invented 'sign dance' and went on to be the founding member of the Auslan Choir. In a world-first, Andy Dexterity is the first-ever sign language artist on The Voice Stage. DEAF-BLIND PEOPLE FACE MANY CHALLENGES, including communication, mobility, and learning difficulties. They may also experience isolation and loneliness, and their sense of security may be impacted. Here are some ways that deaf-blind people may need help: Communication Deaf-blind people may have difficulty following conversations, especially if there are multiple speakers or the speaker is unfamiliar. They may also have trouble hearing noises around them, like a doorbell or a knock at the door. To help, others can speak slowly, clearly, and loudly, and lean in close when speaking. Mobility Deaf-blind people may need help developing skills for moving around safely. They may also need assistance with purchasing adaptive technology to help them live more independently. Learning Deaf-blindness can limit a child's access to the world around them, which can lead to isolation and affect their development and learning. The combined effects of vision and hearing loss can also create barriers that block or distort information, making it difficult for students to learn. Special education and related services can help children with deaf-blindness to address their individual needs. Therapy Some deaf-blind people may need therapy, but it can be difficult to find a professional with the knowledge to help them. If you're struggling, you can videophone, call, text, or chat online with the 988 Lifeline is available 24/7 and confidential. There are crisis counselors available to listen and support you without judgment. When contacting the 988 Lifeline, there is no need to reveal your condition unless you choose to. The crisis counselor will be able to support you either way. Click the following link for help: https://988lifeline.org/deaf-hard-of-hearing-hearing-loss |

“To all the lives we’ve lost by now...to all the lives we will save from now.” ~ Arnold G As of July 2024, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 39.9 million people are living with HIV globally. This is an increase from 27.2 million in 2000. Some other HIV and AIDS statistics include: Treatment access: 30.7 million people were accessing antiretroviral therapy at the end of 2023, which is an increase from 7.7 million in 2010. However, this is still short of the 2025 target of 34 million. New infections: 1.3 million people acquired HIV in 2024. Deaths: 630,000 people died from HIV-related causes in 2024. Untreated: 9.3 million people, or nearly a quarter of those living with HIV, are not receiving treatment. AIDS-related deaths: A person dies from AIDS-related causes every minute. LYRICS Sitting in my room last night Looking back upon my life And the places that I've been Pictures, faces of friends that I've lost.. I try to remember when The last time I saw them Into the light zone Faded memories on the wall Some names I have forgotten But each one is a memory I look back on so often. I look into the past I want to make it last I begin to say…. Now we’re all together Let’s sing a fighting song Chorus Carry on with remembrance Carry on with awareness Carry on with courage Carry on with hope… I couldn’t find the reason why I couldn’t be near my friends I then I realize… I need to wake up soon So very soon… Into the light zone Into the light under A piercing and I’m only Barely holding on To something that is real Oh, so real… Chorus Carry on with remembrance Carry on with awareness Carry on with courage Carry on with hope… I look into the past I want to make it last I begin to say… Now we’re all together Let’s sing a fighting song! Chorus Carry on with remembrance Carry on with awareness Carry on with courage Carry on with hope… Forever carry on For as long as we’re together Darkness all around us We don’t close our eyes in darkness… Oh, yeah… we don’t close…. Oh, we will see through lights… Oh, once for all.... Ooh, ooh, ooh….

"Humania Documentary"HUMANIA DOCUMENTARY SYNOPSIS:
Humania is an ambitious 90-minute documentary film that offers solutions to help empower and reclaim the health and future of all who suffer from mental health issues. It aims to help prevent future increases in mental health prevalence globally, by inspiring change within the paradigm of mental health care, and increasing awareness, stigmatizing, humanizing, and offering solutions of care. A new multi-disciplinary platform of care is presented to help motivate and empower new generations as they may receive support and care to avoid the development of mental health issues. We focus on being part of the solution, instead of the problem. We acknowledge that a healthy person can go down a spiral of despair and fall into the trap of ineffective care within a broken system: As their social environment changes with their family, work, and relationships, so does their mental health status. We want to stop the progression with solutions that have been shown to work. The mental health spectrum is wide, and arches from the severely mentally ill to the mildly depressed, the whole of a person and their environment matter. Targeted for both the general public who need to be heard and feel empowered and those stakeholders who influence care and policy change. Humania inspires action not only to the viewers, but to those viewed as less-than, weak, and unimportant. Historical images and stories of mismanaged, misinformed, often abusive care which range from the early 1770s, and problematic deinstitutionalization of the 1970s, through 2017, demonstrate the fallacies of past and current systems and refocuses this historical lens onto new global paradigms for promoting positive mental health outcomes. The success of the inclusive multidisciplinary and socio-ecological framework reminds us of how vital it is to have a whole-person approach to mental health care and sustainability, prevention, and care. What would it be like to shift from prescription-only treatments to interdisciplinary, and community approaches to care? We educate and inspire by providing archival footage and historical information on mental health, heartfelt interviews, and success stories, and build credibility and confidence through revealing interviews with health care and public health organizations such as CDC, UNESCO, psychiatrists, psychologists, care centers, and more. We continue the global prerogative; “No one left behind.” Web: www.HumaniaDocumentary.com Email: info@humaniadocumentary.com Email: arnoldg96@hotmail.com |
