Notions of Culture & Culturally Inclusive Interpretation
What is the role of translation within the interpreting field? How are multicultural features analyzed and approached when translating? Join us as the interpreting team for the newly released "Hidden Treasures of Black ASL" discuss their process. They will discuss how one's multicultural competency or lack thereof affects the process of live interpreting as well as the production of voiceover translations. The Black ASL Project, for which the team interpreted, is the first empirical study that begins to fill in the linguistic gaps about Black ASL. The resulting "Hidden Treasures of Black ASL: Its History and Structure" book and DVD inform general theory in sociolinguistics, the study of sign languages, and the unique qualities of Black ASL.
