If you haven’t seen caravan of courage and battle for Endor you’re missing out on some of the first Star Wars extended universe.
I love those movies, campy as hell, but fun and weird.
Well Star Wars seems to take two approaches: some races seem to be force sensitive as an implicit property, i.e Yoda’s race (whatever TF that is). Then for every other race force sensitivity is sort of randomised in a Ralph Tresvant way.
