narrative was initially interpreted as a conflict between strong personalities. In this study, however, the narrative is told against the backdrop of colonialism, and specifically, audism. With insights provided through the use of Edgar's (1999; 2004) research on imagework and with reference to Mignolo's (2000) border epistemology, this study makes use of the interplay
between image and text and makes for a richer and multilayered story by revealing injustices and creating a much more compassionate view of all the players who were struggling with the pain of being subjected to audism.
Keywords: Arts-based inquiry, autoethnography, Deaf studies, Deaf education, audism, American Sign Language, educational interpreting
