As an Englishman of a certain age, this brings back memories of my childhood growing up in a small village in northern England. It is a quindecinnial part of Old England along with the village cricket match on Sunday. It was danced to welcome the spring and the end of winter, the Black Morris was danced to welcome the Winter. Don't often see people "Doing the Morris" nowadays and I haven't seen a "Black Morris" for maybe 45 years.

A really lovely video of massed Morris Dancing in the Bury in Odiham. A joint celebration of Hook Eagle Morris Men's 25th birthday and St George's Day. 17 Morris Teams danced in Odiham then toured Hook, Hartley Wintney and Rotherwick

God save the Morris dancers. Don't let the PC crowd take it away.

Its great to keep the old traditions alive. I wonder if in about 500 years people will be doing the Michael Jackson dance on the streets.

i love this, not too sure abt the black face paint though... something just doesn’t feel right about it.
@andymoore9977 3 жыл бұрын
Why does it not feel 'right', what colour should they use? There are numerous groups of ' colour' around the world who put white mud on their faces as part of their cultural celebrations, are they wrong?

@indie blackface was worn to ridicule the law that outlawed blackface as poachers used blackface to hide their identity......nothing at all to do with race.
