While surfing the web i typed in Aztec dance and so much came up for this. Underneath the video you will see lots of comments about "Long Lost Culture" and "Being True to your Heritage" and things like that. The video is 21 mins long but you don't have to watch the whole thing. What do you think of the video?

One of the first things that I noticed when watching this video was the clothing that was being worn during this dance. Many of our readings have described the brightly colored, elaborate headdresses that the dancers have worn. This video brings that description to life and the viewer can really take the time to admire the beautiful, traditional clothing being worn. I found the comments made by others to be extremely interesting. One person said, "Always Remember your Traditions my brother and sisters don't let the Europeans or the Spanish ever take that always from you."
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the link. Interesting video - and YouTube comments often make for interesting reading, too...
ReplyDeleteI thought it was interesting and loved the costumes.. but I think you are right. It is long and they could have edited the film and cut it down.
