This is a blog created by members of the deaf community as they work to have Seattle men's Chorus change their practice of relying on only one (demonstrably unqualified) signer to provide sign language interpretation for concerts.
There is REALLY powerful information here both from the deaf community and from people who hire and train sign language interpreters.

By the end of the day, Rantwoman MAY have further reflections on this issue but it's important to store theselinks regardless.
