  1. Oooh that’s a bit scary, what are the hoods about?

    • yearly ritual in Spain on Good Friday and during Passion Week;
      they are playing “sinners” on processions and the hoods are to keep their identity anonymous.
      We know Ku Klux Klan uses hoods for anonymity too –
      but in Spain the meaning is completely different, it’s not racism.
      Though I am an atheist I was very impressed by the seriousness of the people,
      when I watched GOOD FRIDAY processions in Madrid some years ago…

  7. These violet and magenta robes and pointed hats and masks in this Good Friday reenactment parade remind me of the costumes of the Ku Klux Klan! A very appropriate metaphor, I think!
