Thread Name: Black Britons & Folk Music?
Subject: RE: Black Britons & Folk Music?
One of the things I like about this thread is I never know what aspect of the subject and related subjects and not really & truly related subjects folks will be sharing from post to the next.

We've been posting information about history & culture such as Ignatius Sancho, the British Spinners, EK2, Riverdance, Animal House, the Bad Taste singing competition, Notting Hill Carnival,Buckwheat Zydeco, Bo Dollis & the Wild Magnolias, & all the links from those for radio stations to Boka Halat & Baka Beyond to the secret gnome clubs.

And we've been exploring "heavy duty" subjects that will always be with us such as what is folk music & what is the most appropriate reference for people of African descent.

Hopefully, we've demonstrated that Mudcatters [and people in general] don't need to agree with each other all the time. Inspite of the disagreements, misunderstandings, and sometimes not too gracious remarks, we have shown that we can keep on posting because the information is worth the effort.

Thank you.
