Comments by "Joe R M" (@joermnyc) on "The hidden history of “Hand Talk”" video.

  1. I learned about Hand Talk from”The Mandolorian”, as Native American actors portrayed Tuskan Raiders, or Sand People, and they would communicate with Mando (and later Boba Fett) using Hand Talk to negotiate to traverse their land (something many people didn’t bother to do, and then they wondered why they were shot at.) Really sad most people don’t know that ASL was derived from Hand Talk.
