Inclusion: The Fight for Language Rights in Healthcare by Dr. Amanda Oliva is a compelling exploration of the systemic barriers faced by Deaf individuals in medical settings, grounded in her groundbreaking dissertation research. Drawing on the concept of language deprivation the chronic lack of access to a natural language during critical developmental periods, Dr. Oliva examines the pervasive challenges of communication inequity in healthcare. Through rigorous quantitative research and a review of current studies, Dr. Oliva spotlights the discriminatory factors that often prevent Deaf individuals from accessing qualified American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters. Her work sheds light on the human rights violations that occur when healthcare organizations fail to provide necessary accommodations, creating a critical gap between Deaf and hearing communities. This book not only highlights the struggles of Deaf individuals denied language access but also offers a path forward by advocating for greater understanding, accessibility, and systemic change. Inclusion is a vital call to action, urging readers to join the fight for language equity and a future free from barriers and discrimination.
