Watch: Follow the Signs by Chris Fonseca and Harry Jardine

Posted on March 5, 2021 by



A powerful video has been released called Follow the Signs, telling the true story of Deaf dancer Chris Fonseca and his search for identity through BSL and English rap.

The song and video cover Fonseca’s childhood experiences and feelings around his deafness and race. He tells of how he felt about having a cochlear implant and about finding other Deaf people who liked music as much as he did – before finding a positive sense of his identity.

Watch the video, which is fully subtitled, here:
