ANGLO SAXON MYTHOLOGY

The English Rights Campaign has recently received an email, a copy of which is below and which is self-explanatory:

‘Hi,
My name is Baz and I am an archaeologist based in Australia.
Doubtlessly you will be aware of the great Anglo Saxon cultural treasure that is the poem Beowulf - a great epic about a heroic ancestor of the North Seas peoples.
Currently a film is being made in America which will see Beowulf cast as an 'African'. The film is literally riddled with historical nonsense.
In my country misrepresenting another culture contravenes relevant race/religion laws and we are fighting it on that basis. Academics, cultural groups, Odinists and individuals from around the world are expressing their outrage and since it is a relatively small scale production we believe that a decent amount of letters to the sponsors may just halt production.
If this film goes ahead it sets a precedent that our culture and heritage is 'up for grabs'.......so act now before we see Will Smith accepting an Oscar for his portrayal of Richard Lionheart's amazing victory against the Luftwaffe at Waterloo! (Or similar such nonsense)

Please feel free to spread the word - we need 'all hands on deck' for this one!
Be well and Prosper!
