#mawningworld RepCouture Label Presents: #YourCultureYourHeritage #heritagepart1 #Masquerade The purpose of the masquerade dance is to pay respect to Montserrat’s ancestors, some of whom were slaves of Irish plantation owners. The dance is an expression of protest against the oppression of the slave-owners, which included the outlawing of slaves’ African customs of drumming, dance rituals, and folk traditions of worship and healing. Despite the efforts of the slave owners, these aspects of their identity were never truly lost: they survived throughout the years despite being banned from public practice. A fusion of African and European cultural influences, the dancers dress in bright and colourful garments adorned with assorted accessories including mirrors, whips, ribbons and the most crucial aspect of the attire, the mask itself. The mask is a tall headdress resembling a face with a ‘hat’ similar to a bishops mitre, like the one worn by Saint Patrick in some depictions. As the slaves observed their masters at parties masq1and celebrations, either through the windows or while serving food at such events, they began to emulate the European folk dances they saw, in the way colonial subjects have often been reported to imitate the practices of those in power. Dancing was a form of entertainment for these slaves, mocking their owners with parodies and imitations, but it was also an important means of cultural communication. For example, the dances would often refer to malevolent ‘jumbie’ spirits, ghostly beings that control those who do evil and remind others to do good, though jumbie dances were also performed to help cure diseases, exorcise curses or discover guilt. Throughout these dances, the slaves wore masks.... This is your Culture join us as we discover our heritage.
