  • Morris dancers from Beorma Border Morris dancing troupe in Kings Heath pose for a photograph after visiting a local friend on May Day under Coronavirus lockdown on 1st May 2020 in Birmingham, England, United Kingdom. These two women from the Beorma Morris are wearing their full costumes including rags and tatters, fishnet tights and feathers, and with distinctive blackened faces. Many morris sides through history blackened their faces, and Blacking up is reputed to have been as some form of disguise because the performers many of whom had jobs in agriculture, were begging, which was both illegal and could bring them shame. If so, the black face must have been a custom that saved face on the part of dancers and audience alike. The Coronavirus or Covid-19 is a new respiratory illness that has not previously been seen in humans. While much or Europe has been placed into lockdown, the UK government has put in place more stringent rules as part of their long term strategy, and in particular social distancing.

  • Members of a Belgian Boy Scout troupe write on paper during a daytrip to Brussels, while one separately looks elsewhere. As his four mates write on a sheet of paper, perhaps comparing notes on a city quiz that helps them earn Scout points, the other boy on his own looks away with disinterest, apparently showing a disregard for the other members of his group. The boys are by blackened walls near the Grand Place in central Brussels, Belgium. This is Brussels’ main city square, the focal point for colourful events throughout the year. Its Dutch-styled gabled guildhalls date from the 13th century and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

  • Mothers swing a child across a filthy puddle in the town of Nova Huta, an industrial Stalinist steel town in southern Poland. In filthy this industrial street, three street urchins watch the colourfully-dressed girls pass-by.

But Solidarity grew strong forcing strikes over pay and recognition over their union. Today, it is an economic and ecological disaster area.
