Prof. Young talks about translating the Deaf Self and its agency through two points: 'grassroots' Deaf community & 'Deaf Professional class' #ANC2021 #1ntsl

[ASLIA National @ASLIAnational]

Prof. Young mentions intra/inter/non-lingual processes & effects for deaf signers of regular, multiple & lifelong experiences of being encountered by others, and also of being inter-subjectively known in translated form - eg through SL interpreters #ANC2021 #1ntsl

[ASLIA National @ASLIAnational]

'Translating the deaf self' - started with gaze: hearing attention to interpreters; academic attention to interpreting research; discomfort amongst interpreters and signing hearing colleagues - Prof. Young #ANC2021

[ASLIA National @ASLIAnational]

Professor Young talks about 'Gaze' - specifically the hearing gaze in the deaf community and culture. Particular gazes have power and becomes the context in which another person is expected to understand & know themselves. #ANC2021
