Batik Handicraft of the Black Hmong

Ms. Ly Thi My introduces us to one of the distinctive, Hmong handicraft technique called batik. Her narrative illustrates the unique process starting with drawing with hot wax to the final stages of natural indigo dying.

Thanks for filming our Hmong people. We can't go there and support our Hmong people due to the communist.
