The idiosyncrasia of the Processions of the Holy Week can surprise those who are not familiar with the steps, processions, images and zeal that awaken to the most pious. In Spain, from north to south, Faith floods every corner these holidays. But there are always people who are surprised and even show their rejection of these types of parties.
Although in this case it is more than criticism. Since a group of young Americans, who are studying in Valencia, it has reported his impressions before the steps of the Holy Week Marinera through the social network ‘Tiktok’. For example, the young ‘Tiktokera’ Leigha Logan, accompanied by a group of friends, confused the clothing of the Nazarener with the clothes of the Ku Klux Klan members.
“Things that were not willing to see as blacks today”, is seen in the video in ‘Tiktok’ and has more than eight million views. The young woman shows her stupor and also her confusion, because they have nothing to do with the capirotes and robes that the members of the various brotherhoods and brotherhoods of the neighborhoods of Poblats Maritims wear with the clothing of the American supremacist hate group.
Under the contributions of users in the reactions, some understand the surprise of these young Americans, but other individuals have indicated that it is racist. So much so that, given the number of responses that the ‘Tiktok’ account has received after the publication of the video, Leigha Logan has prevented more comments from his ‘post’.
In the video they can be seen on a balcony that observes a procession in which the components wear the usual Capirote and the tunic, in this case white and purple, as part of one of the steps of the Holy Week Marinera. There is also a group of drums.
The American children laugh and show faces of surprises to what they see on the street. “Things that our black donkeys were not willing to see” is written in the publication.
