Subject: RE: Calling time on Blackface Morris
Speaking as a born and bred Smurf I find it offensive when people paint their faces blue.

Shouldn't be allowed.

Now most of you are saying "what an idiot" and I have to say I agree with you.

As far as I am aware painting faces black was merely done to avoid "those in power" from recognising those who were dancing.
