GUEST,In good company	Shrewsbury FF to ban 'blacked up' Morris (264* d)	RE: Shrewsbury FF to ban 'blacked up' Morris	01 Sep 16
Point taken, Howard. I was just continuing the earlier usage but I shall use the term blacked up in this context from now on. However, I think that a lot of people may be missing the point I, and others, are trying to make. Whether it is in fact racist or not is irrelevant. The fact remains that some people will see it as racist and, for their own purposes, they will use the tradition to make a racist statement. Going back to Vic's point about the tradition being hijacked a certain organisation, including someone posting on here, to push a racist agenda is very important and now that race hate seems to be on the increase it is even more so. Anyone removing an excuse for racist thugs to press their agenda is, to my mind, doing a good thing. D
