Occupy Wall Street’s Hand Signals

You’ve got to give the protesters a lot of credit, they’re doing without a lot of things in their efforts to Occupy Wall Street: nice warm beds, a roof over their head, a clean bathroom of their own, and so on.

And another thing their doing without or not allowed to use, is a microphone, and so their making up their own ways of communicating using hand signals and shouting back out what a speaker says in a call and response type of routine. CNN’s Jeanne Moos tries to decipher all of their hand signals and other ways of getting their message across. Although one hand signal that’s missing in the video below is a middle finger aimed at everyone on Wall Street.
