Thank you, Albert, for this enlightening article. Clearly you, as a person who stutters, are connected with all the others across this wide world in "One Voice". Thank you for putting faces to the PWS and building bridges across continents to connect those who stutter across the world. Together you WILL make a difference. On another note, I am sympathetic to all who are discriminated against in society--and find it sad that even amongst your own group of PWS that those who don't stutter much separate themselves from those who stutter more. I am not sure how the world at large can get along peacefully if there are defining divides within the smaller communities. Lastly, as for the "youtube" making fun of the stuttering issue--it is a current disorder of our American society, but perhaps this is also reflected in other global societies, that in order to build oneself up (s)he often will point a finger and laugh while tearing another down. In reality, the person pointing the finger at the other has three pointing at him/herself. In closing, awareness is key. The more the NS world is allowed to see the stuttering world, the more comfortable each will become with the other. Gratefully! Keep us your good work. The work you are all accomplishing today will make it easier for those following behind you. PS: Where is it possible to view the "SSStutter--A Documentary"?
