Deaf people in Japan - 08-08-2011, 09:19 AM

I'm wondering if any of the forum members here know about deaf people in Japan, Japanese Sign Language, and other related subjects. I am a deaf American myself, and have been learning Japanese and Japanese Sign Language this summer. Because of this, I am very interested in learning about, well, what it's like to be a deaf person in Japan.

I don't really have any specific questions right now, but I want to know what kinds of issues deaf people face while living in Japan, and what the deaf community is like there - I know very little about both topics, so I'd love to learn more.

Thanks
