Parks: Do you know any deaf people, Dr. Benton? Benton: No. No, I don't. Parks: Have you ever thought that being deaf might not be so terrible? Benton: So, you're saying there's no problem? Parks: You can never know what it's like to be deaf. Just like I can never know what it's like to be black. Benton: I don't look at me being black as a burden. That's who I am. Parks: And I don't look at my deafness as a burden. That's who I am. If you turn away from your son's deafness, you will be robbing him of his identity. Benton: My son has a medical problem. I'm not turning away from anything. I'm trying to fix it.
Music: "I Can't Help It," Betty Carter; "Come On (Let The Good Times Roll)," Jimi Hendrix
