Africa

This sign has gone through a few political debates.  At first it was an "A" circling the face.

Then people started using a "loose C" handshape that uses a curved downward motion while changing into an "AND" handshape.

Then people went BACK to the "A" circling the face.  Either way is fine with me, but some people go on a tirade if you don't sign it their way.  If people in your social circle sign it one particular way, by all means adopt that method.  Currently I sign it by circling the "A" around my face.
