Well done. Keep this link to our folk and culture alive. It's all our heritage. It must survive and go on! Otherwise it will fade and so will our history.

Any bets on how much longer until this is deemed not inclusive enough, hence too indigenous, hence too racist? I'm guessing three years.

[@WILTALK]

Its racist because most brown and black people in their home countries can not afford shoes.

[@rogerdecoursey8341]

Oh it'll come don't you worry. Wont be happy until we're all gone.

[@savagesnayle7492]

trying a bit too hard for a proper English clog dance it is after all meant to be working class people having a laugh not selling a product.

[@phabebarcelona863]

Kinder when compares tp the Welsh Cloggers nd Alapchain not quite the same. perhaps little to much effort there!

[@hetrodoxlysonov-wh9oo]

There were and still is lots of competition clogging, even the girls in the 18th century mill towns of northern England where it started tapping their (English clogs, wooden sole leather uppers)to the beat of the looms had competitions with the best and complicated steppers winning and there were cash prizes to be won, there was lots of different step dance in England every area had it's own style and every inn had a plate to step on, English settlers took clog dancing with them to the Appalachians.

[@johnstevenson1709]

It's a demonstration seems perfectly normal for that context. There's a difference between playing football and trying to show some one who's never seen a game what it can look like

[@Wotsitorlabart]

@@johnstevenson1709 Yes. I know very little about all this but I assume that the champion clog dancers of the Victorian and Edwardian eras didn't become so through being shy and retiring.

[@lesterjohnston8888]

So true
