A signed performance of ‘America the Beautiful’ will feature #NativeAmerican #signlanguage, which thrived for centuries but is fading from collective memory. #ColinDenny, a #deaf #Navajo man, will use both American Sign Language (#ASL) & Plains Indian Sign Language (#PISL), which was once so common across #GreatPlains that it was a #linguafranca,” a language used by both #deaf and #hearing people to #communicate between #tribes that didn’t share the same spoken language. https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2023/02/12/native-american-sign-language-super-bowl/
