App for the deaf that makes watching ASL more affordable(?)

This app idea came to me when I was browsing through a post on r/TrueOffMyChest that had to do with the current upcoming election and American Sign Language (ASL).<br><br>For those who don't know (or maybe don't care), both presidential candidates have been consistently criticized for their lack of effort in providing ASL interpreters at their public events. Biden's campaign has been the worst offender, with *zero* commitments to ASL, while Trump's campaign has offered an ASL interpreter consistently.<br><br>However, some have taken to telling deaf people (who overwhelmingly use ASL) to "learn to read" or use a device that has captions. And then there are some who say that ASL is dying, and it's an "old" language anyway.<br><br>This got me thinking: how expensive is it to learn a language? I've used Duolingo (a language learning app with both free and paid options) to learn other languages, but they don't have ASL. You can still learn some basic ASL words and phrases via YouTube, but there are no full courses in ASL. I'm not even sure there is an app for this (ASL has its own grammar rules).<br><br>As far as also making the content more affordable, we could also include job opportunities (like remote jobs) and educational content (such as accredited courses). I've worked with an older deaf man before, and the biggest barrier to getting a job was communication (he had written English fluency of a second grader).<br><br>So, in conclusion: An app that helps deaf people learn ASL, find jobs, and get access to educational content that might otherwise be too expensive. I mean, some of these courses and apps have a hefty price tag.
