F y'all's I, how I spent my last summer vacation. It was originally
supposed to be a journal issue but managed to grow into a book. We are
also hoping to put together a more qualitative and ethnographic take on
the issue in the near future, so anyone interested in the topic or who
knows somebody who is, please let me know asap. Feel free to send to
whoever you think might be interested.
all best and happy summer!
Leila

HIV/AIDS and Deaf Communities Constanze Schmaling and Leila Monaghan (Eds.)
Deaf people, who are part of sign language using Deaf communities around the
world, are living with and dying from HIV/AIDS. The little statistical
evidence available suggests that they are disproportionately affected by the
disease. Before this book, there had been few studies and few resources for
dealing with this problem. This work breaks new ground by bringing together
a remarkable range of qualitative and quantitative work on the topic.
Included are the experiences of the first openly HIV+ Deaf man in South
Africa, poetry and fiction by the acclaimed American writer Raymond Luczak,
quantitative studies of the extent of HIV/AIDS and the amount of knowledge
Deaf people have about the problem in United States, how the problem is
being ignored in Japan, and the variety of strategies people are using to
combat the problem in places as diverse as the Gambia, South Africa, Belgium
and Brazil.
