Azizip17- @tjblyden I very much agree. I hope that this video & other old videos are being protected & archived in the Bahamas & elsewhere so that future generations can see ,hear, & study them. For instance, what are the differences between the customes, dance styles, musical instruments then & now? Do costumes still incorporate floats like that canoe? I love the American West theme & Bob Marley's Buffalo Soldier song. I believe this gives homage to American Indians & does not disrespect them.
