Subject: RE: Black-faced Morris dancers
As I said Les, everyone has the right to his/her own opinion. I remember the minstrel show from the 60's/70's', did'nt like them, the fact that they were white men dressing as caricatures of black men was and is wrong on every level. The point I was trying to make is that a culture has arisen where "Racism" is seen where none actually exists. While I accept what is or is not seen as racist is open to personal interpretation I do feel that when we live in a society where children are banned from singing baa baa black sheep at school in case it offends someone it's time to take a reality check
