George Veditz created 18 movies featuring current signs used commonly at the time in an effort to preserve the signs and Deaf heritage
While not all of the movies survived, some of them did, allowing them to be preserved for history and to help rebuild ASL once the Oralist approach went by the wayside

Whites and Blacks also separated in Deaf Schools, as well as having their residential accommodations being separate
Because of this separation, most black Deaf students are subsequently taught by white teachers. As a result, a large portion of Black Deaf culture and history has been lost permanently
Pioneers in Black Deaf Cultural education have been able to revive some of this cultural history and are working hard to maintain and establish a modern Black Deaf culture in America
Most Black Deaf students received less of an academic education and more vocational training so that they would be able to establish themselves in careers
Following the American Civil War due to Black Codes and Jim Crow laws, African American and White students were separated for school
Due to Audistic and Oralist policies, the majority of Deaf teachers were removed from their positions in favor of Hearing teachers. This trend continued well into the 20th century
"The problem is not that the students do not hear. The problem is that the Hearing world does not listen" - Rev. Jesse L. Jackson
