Explanation:

Alexander Graham Bell is mostly known as the inventor of the telephone, but he also made a significant negative impact on the American Deaf community. He is known as the father of oralism in American Deaf education.

He considered the sign language to be a foreign language and argued that in an English speaking country, like the US, the English language should be spoken in public schools. As a supporter of the eugenics movement, he saw a problem in hearing people marrying deaf people, thinking that would cause damage to the human race. He decided to try removing the causes of this occurrence. The Sign language, deaf teachers, and residential schools were what he considered to be these causes, and the solution to that he saw in the creation of special day schools, where hearing teachers would teach and forbid the use of sign language. As a result, oralism was taught at Deaf schools.
