Deaf News: ‘Deaf people can achieve anything’ A hero student given bravery award after saving dozen pupils from fire.





PRETORIA, SA -- Independent Online‎: The National Disability Heroes Award 2015 was presented to Thabang Moruti on Friday in recognition of his heroic act in risking his life to go into a burning school and save the lives of 13 Deaf girls.





Moruti, who is in Grade 12 at the North West Secondary School for the Deaf in Leeudoringstad, told African News Agency that, for him, his award symbolised that “Deaf people can achieve anything”.



He recounted in South African Sign Language (SASL) how he woke up after midnight, around 1am in the morning on August 24, 2015, and realised the girls hostel was on fire.



Moruti was a delegate at the National Disability Rights Summit this week and shared his experience of what happened that night.



He said he just woke up without the help of warning lights, which should be in place at a school for the Deaf in case of an emergency, and realised that the building had caught alight.



“I ran outside and climbed up a tree outside the building to the second floor into the building and brought each girl outside, down the tree.”



Thinking back, the shy 21-year-old hero said the experience had “sparked an interest in firefighting”.



He said he wanted to become a firefighter and play a role in educating people with disabilities in communities, especially Deaf people, about the importance of fire safety.





Moruti said that during the summit he had learnt the importance of equal rights for people with disabilities.



“Deaf and Hearing people should be equal,” he said. The rights of people with disabilities should not lag behind the rights of able-bodied people.

VIDEO: 'Saturday Night Live' fake interpreter from Nelson Mandela funeral strikes again.



NEW YORK CITY - 'Saturday Night Live' kicked off its John Goodman-helmed episode with President Obama (Jay Pharoah) lamenting the "series of unfortunate events" that happened at the memorial for Nelson Mandela.



First of all, there was that selfie with the Danish Prime Minister, then the handshake with Raul Castro ("He told me he was Edward James Olmos,") and finally, the sign language interpreter who didn't appear to know sign language. Naturally, after mentioning him, Thamsanqa Jantjie (Kenan Thompson) appeared behind the POTUS and proceeded to "loosely" interpret the rest of the speech.



Most importantly, 'SNL' reminded us that lost amongst all the hoopla were the feelings of poor Angela Merkel, he never got her selfie with Obama, even after he spied on her.





An SNL interpreter skit is making people laugh all across the United States of America this week, as SNL decided to make a parody of the #fakeinterpreter who made off-key signs at the memorial service following the recent death of Nelson Mandela. The video is swiftly making the rounds online over the debacle, and viewers are saying that it’s crazy to think that this spoof really isn’t that far off the mark of what really happened with the schizophrenic sign language “expert” last week.



The SNL interpreter skit comes at a time that many citizens across the globe are still mourning the tragic loss of Nelson Mandela, but both the Deaf and others were recently shocked at the real-life debacle of what happened with the sign language interpreter at the peaceful man’s memorial service. Thamsanga Jantjie says he has gone to School Specialized for the Deaf and is skilled in the use of sign language, but the South African actually used bogus signs throughout the service.



Now, Jantjie is adding that he suffers from schizophrenia, and during the speech, the dubbed fake interpreter was having insane visions of flying angels coming into the stadium, preventing him from signing properly. Of course, SNL decided to make a skit of this interpreter’s debacle, and the result is very funny. ...

EXCLUSIVE VIDEO [CC] - Mandela memorial 'fake' sign language interpreter defends himself. A South African sign language interpreter accused of gesturing gibberish during the Nelson Mandela.



JOHANNESBURG - A South African sign language interpreter accused of gesturing gibberish during the Nelson Mandela memorial on Tuesday has spoken out.



Thamsanqa Jantjie said he suffers from schizophrenia which affected him during the service.



The 34-year-old told Johannesburg’s Star newspaper he started hearing voices and hallucinating while on stage.



Jantjie explained how the condition has affected him: “I see angels come to the stadium. Sometimes I will react violently on that place. Sometimes I will see things chasing me. You know, I was in a very very difficult position,” he said.





Interpreter refuses to sign for CNN. Thamsanqa Jantjie, the sign language interpreter at Nelson Mandela's memorial, defends his "translation" at the event.



“Please forgive me, but what I was doing, I was doing what I believe is my calling, I was doing what I believe makes a difference to the country,” Jantjie continued.



After the memorial, South Africa’s leading Deaf association denounced Jantjie as a “fake.”



The South African government has admitted he was not a professional interpreter.







This, along with his admissions of past violence and his state of mental health at the memorial service, has promoted awkward questions about security. ... Read more: http://www.euronews.com/2013/12/12/mandela-memorial-fake-sign-language-interpreter-defends-himself

So together we watched one of Nelson Mandela's grandchildren deliver. You can see even wonders if a rocking horse was mentioned in the podium because the interpreter the for one. Many people that hope that that be plenty of singing and dancing to celebrate the life of Nelson Mandela they weren't really ready for all those long speeches at the ceremony. But the biggest headache now for the South African government which organized the event is to explain how this man got the job.



Fortunately from local TV it's clear that to interpret his a completely different page. An extraordinary case of lost in translation.

EXCLUSIVE VIDEO [CC] - I'm schizophrenic, says 'fake' interpreter - DeafSA says, it really is a huge insult to Deaf community.



JOHANNESBURG - The Madiba memorial interpreter - who has been dubbed a “fake and a fraud” - is receiving treatment for schizophrenia.



Thami Jantjie, the fake interpreter, said in an interview with Talk Radio 702 he is currently receiving treatment for this disorder.



Jantjie also questioned why nobody picked up at the time that he wasn't interpreting properly.



"Remember, you are talking about an interpreter who has been interpreting through these years. If I was wrong why should it become an issue now?” he asked.



Jantjie said he is sad because he believes the issue could have been dealt with early if DeafSA had picked up his way of interpreting.





Interpreter refuses to sign for CNN. Thamsanqa Jantjie, the sign language interpreter at Nelson Mandela's memorial, defends his "translation" at the event.





Thami Jantjie, the infamous sign language interpreter at the Mandela memorial service on Monday, says he suffers from schizophrenia.



"It should have been put in clarity a long time ago,” he said. "What I have been doing, I think I have been a champion of sign language.”



He said that he doesn't want to discuss his condition as it will harm his children. Jantjie added that he is a senior interpreter with SA Interpreters.







The sign language interpreter who sparked outrage within the Deaf community says he may have suffered a kind of "schizophrenic" attack during the Mandela memorial and apologises for any offence caused.



If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.



The words of former president Nelson Mandela. But at his memorial service on Tuesday, the Deaf community was short-changed by an apparently unqualified sign language interpreter.



Event organisers are now passing the buck as to who was responsible for hiring him. ... Read more: http://www.enca.com/south-africa/fake-interpreter-speaks-accusations

VIDEO [CC] - Deaf News: The international Deaf community is angry over what they say was a fake sign language interpreter used at Mandela's memorial.



JOHANNESBURG -- 'Fake' Mandela memorial sign language interpreter incites anger. It was an event the whole world was watching, but some Deaf people couldn't understand a word spoken at Mandela’s memorial and took to Twitter to vent their frustration.



Allegations have been made that the sign language interpreter used at the memorial may have been unqualified.



Braam Jordaan, a Deaf South African citizen and board member of the World Federation of the Deaf Youth Section (WDFYS), told SBS he believes the interpreter is a fake.



"The structure of his hand, facial expressions and the body movements did not follow what the speaker was saying," he told SBS via email.



Watch: The sign interpreter signing at the Mandela memorial service.


Mr Jordaan says the interpreter, who was signing for a portion of the ceremony including Obama's speech, was simply making up his own signs.



"I was really upset and humiliated by the mystery interpreter who was supposed to be signing what Barack Obama, the president of United States of America was saying," he says. "He made up his own signs."



"What happened at the memorial service is truly disgraceful thing to see - it should not happen at all.



"What happened today will be forever aligned with Nelson Mandela & Deaf Community, thanks to this fake interpreter."



Mr Jordaan says there have been question marks over the same interpretor at previous ANC events.



Watch: The interpreter signing along to Jacob Zuma at ANC Centenery Celebrations in Bloemfontein, South Africa in January 2012.



The Oceania representative for the World Association of Sign Language Interpreters (WASLI), Sheena Walters, also states that the signing used was not recognisable as any accepted form of international or South African sign language.



“It seems quite obvious that the interpreter isn’t using South African sign language,” she told SBS. ... Read more: http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/2013/12/11/anger-over-hoax-mandela-memorial-sign-language-interpretor
