A program marked by inclusion
The recent edition of ‘La Revuelta’ had an unexpected turn when David Broncano, a regular in the world of Late Night, was forced to modify one of his traditions at the request of a special guest.
A significant visit
Yesterday, the program was attended by Álvaro Cervantes and Miriam Garlo, a deaf actress who has recently been recognized with the Biznaga de Plata. On the occasion of their participation, they presented ‘Deaf’, a pioneering film that seeks to be 100% accessible to all.
A gesture that changed the atmosphere
At the beginning of the show, Broncano usually creates a festive atmosphere playing the drum. However, his tradition was altered when Garlo kindly asked him not to. “Please do not touch it. Some deaf people may be very annoying,” he said, referring to the presence of auditory-impaired spectators.
Reflections on hearing impairment
With his usual irony, Broncano took the opportunity to explore this reality. “Do you bother the sound of the drum to be deaf or is it a personal experience?” He asked Garlo, who shared that, for many people with hearing impairment, sounds can be a source of discomfort.
The complexity of perceptions
Garlo explained that each deaf individual can have a different experience: “For me, sound is synonymous with pain. Not only physical, but also emotional. Vibrations move through my body and this can be overwhelming.”
Humor and understanding
One of the most curious aspects of this situation is that the gesture of touching the hype is also the sign of bronchano in sign language. “It is an honor to have a sign, even if it is ironic, as many deaf people do not enjoy it,” he said between laughter, thanking for their recognition within such a peculiar context.
A step toward sensitization
With this interaction, ‘La Revuelta’ not only entertained, but also opened a necessary debate on the inclusion and awareness of the needs of people with hearing impairment. Moments like these help promote a greater understanding and empathy in society.
