Bret wrote posts about the onion project.

This onion is our map. It reminds us to look beyond the surface, to stay curious even when things make us cry a little, and to value every layer for what it reveals. By the end of this journey, may we all see more clearly, listen more deeply, and understand that within each layer lies not just Deaf experience, but the shared humanity that connects us all.

~ A. Bret Cummens, M.Ed.
