Hey guys! Looking for any recommendations on good resources for learning ASL and about deaf culture. Also looking for resources on learning about blind culture. I have found a few textbooks for ASL that look good but I'd love to hear from anyone. Can't find much for blind culture research.

For context, I have a blind character in my story Irish Dame. She is my FL's best friend. In book 3 (yes I have already planned to have multiple books) I have a deaf character who becomes a friend to my FL when things take a drastic turn. I don't want to make obvious mistakes or hand wave my way through key details like the ASL so any recommendations are much appreciated.
