The NAD<br \/>\nin partnership with PepsiCo worked closely with the National Football<br \/>\nLeague to ensure that America&#8217;s songs would be delivered in ASL at the<br \/>\nSuper Bowl. The NAD hopes that the national broadcast will include the<br \/>\nsigned performance.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The NAD thanks PepsiCo and the NFL for their support in ensuring that<br \/>\nthe elegance and allure of the National Anthem and America the<br \/>\nBeautiful would once again be showcased through ASL,&#8221; said Bobbie Beth<br \/>\nScoggins, NAD President.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Inclusion does not happen overnight, rather it is a journey of<br \/>\nawareness,&#8221; said Massimo d&#8217; Amore, President, Global Beverages, and<br \/>\nexecutive sponsor of the EnAble inclusion initiative at PepsiCo. &#8220;That<br \/>\nis why PepsiCo partners with such visible champions as National<br \/>\nAssociation of the Deaf (NAD) to drive positive change. Our partnership<br \/>\nwith NAD began with &#8216;Bob&#8217;s House,&#8217; the ASL ad we ran during the 2008<br \/>\nSuper Bowl pre-game show, so it is only fitting that we are working<br \/>\ntogether to once again use this amazing platform to shine a light on<br \/>\nASL and the issue of inclusion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Super Bowl is one of the most sought after sporting events of the<br \/>\nyear and is watched by millions. The NAD is grateful to its partners<br \/>\nfor their support in promoting the artistry and linguistic importance<br \/>\nof American Sign Language.<\/p>\n<p>Click here for more information about NAD Miss Deaf America Ambassador<br \/>\nprogram and Rachel Mazique.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/nad.org\/youth\/miss-deaf-america-ambassador-program\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/nad.org\/youth\/miss-deaf-america-ambassador-program<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nad.org\/news\/2012\/2\/super-bowl-xlvi-pepsico-and-nad\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.nad.org\/news\/2012\/2\/super-bowl-xlvi-pepsico-and-nad<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Super Bowl XLVI: PepsiCo and the NAD The National Association for the Deaf (NAD) and PepsiCo announce that the NAD Miss Deaf America, Rachel Mazique, will perform the National Anthem and America the Beautiful in American Sign Language (ASL) at&hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/deafnetwork.com\/wordpress\/blog\/2012\/02\/03\/super-bowl-xlvi-pepsico-and-the-nad\/\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[2],"tags":[12385,7917,1629,23,1655,12390,12387,3048,12386,9997,12384,100,1743,630,523,12388,11241,2473,12389],"class_list":["post-17499","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-deaf-news","tag-bobs-house","tag-america-the-beautiful","tag-american-sign-language","tag-asl","tag-bobbie-beth-scoggins","tag-enable-inclusion-initiative","tag-global-beverages","tag-indianapolis","tag-massimo-d-amore","tag-miss-deaf-america","tag-miss-deaf-america-ambassador","tag-nad","tag-national-anthem","tag-national-association-of-the-deaf","tag-nfl","tag-pepsico","tag-rachel-mazique","tag-super-bowl","tag-super-bowl-xlvi"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p752R-4yf","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":17555,"url":"https:\/\/deafnetwork.com\/wordpress\/blog\/2012\/02\/07\/miss-deaf-america-upset-shes-unseen-at-super-bowl\/","url_meta":{"origin":17499,"position":0},"title":"Miss Deaf America upset she&#8217;s unseen at Super Bowl","author":"Grant Laird Jr","date":"February 7, 2012","format":false,"excerpt":"Miss Deaf America upset she's unseen at Super Bowl By Jamie Sotonoff February 7, 2012 During the Super Bowl, television cameras showed everything from Eli Manning's young family to hip-hop singer M.I.A.'s obscene gesture.
