Panic Parade

I think this is a snipet of a performance called Thousand Hand Bodhisattva by the China Art Troupe of Disabled Persons. All of them are deaf. You can see the full performance here, it’s just under 6 minutes. Very talented!

I was corrected on Twitter by someone from the community --- they’re actually Old Order Mennonites! Although they follow that ‘plain living’ doctrine that the Amish do, they also carefully allow technology into their communities. Televisions are one of the few pieces of modern tech that’s allowed in certain Mennonite sects. The Mennonites and Quakers are no nonsense when it comes to oppression of any kind. Google more about them and you’ll quickly find out that it’s no surprise they showed up. They always show up.

There were some of them out in Des Moines protesting too from what I heard! They’re good people.
