The Deaf are a community who face unique linguistic, economic, social, cultural  and political circumstances. As such, they, not us, have defined the Deaf as a "culture" and they capitalize the name of their culture. As a culture, I can imagine many things that they can feel proud of. However, you may be better of asking a Deaf person what s/he feels proud of.
