"Zwarte Piet is ineens taboe". "'Neger' zeggen mag ook niet meer". "What's next? Blanke vla uit de schappen want dat is ook racisme?" Ehm, "nee", antwoorde ik sinds 2012 regelmatig via de Sociale media. Dus toen een witte vriendin tegen me zei "Ik wil een salon houden over 'white privilege' en jij MOET erbij zijn," over witte dwang gesproken, was ik enthousiast. Het was begin 2014. Vlak na het uitbarsten van de zwarte piet discussie. Er werd veel gezegd, geschreven en vooral gescholden. Het land geroemd om openheid, vrijheid van meningsuiting en tolerantie leek in een blackface-crisis in de ban van 'Pietitie'. Is het leven aangenamer als je Mark of Marieke heet? Hierover praten vanuit een wit perspectief leek me niet alleen nuttig maar ook vermakelijk. "Ik zorg ervoor dat de witte mensen die ik uitnodig allemaal warm en ruimdenkend zijn. Het wordt beslist geen discussie over de vraag of 'white privilege' bestaat of niet. Dat er sprake is 'white privilege' in de maatschappij is evident voor iedereen die komt. Een veilige sfeer staat voorop," zei m'n vriendin. Famous lasts words=. Wat hebben we van elkaar geleerd? Was het inspirerend? Tot welke inzichten zijn we gekomen? Bijna alle witte mensen, (veelal hoogopgeleiden intellectuelen werkzaam in de kunst, cultuur en media sector) voelden zich aangevallen. Weggezet en opgezadeld met 'iets' wat totaal niet strookte met hoe ze zichzelf en hun plaats in de maatschappij zagen: "Ja maar ik ontleen helemaal geen voordeel aan het feit dat ik nou eenmaal wit ben geboren." "Ik kom uit een arm, simpel en/of kil milieu." "Ik kom uit de provincie, dat is veel minder exotisch dan het hebben van een mooi kleurtje. Sterker nog, ik wou dat ik mooi egaal bruin was en krullen had. Ik word nooit bruin in de zomer alleen maar rood." "En als homo word ik juist gediscrimineerd door moslims en Surinamers dus=." Dit omschrijft een beetje de strekking van de ongenoegens. Wat gebeurde er vervolgens? De meeste mensen van kleur probeerden de witte mensen te overtuigen van het , wetenschappelijk bewezen en gedocumenteerde, feit dat het nou eenmaal makkelijker is in de maatschappij om wit te zijn dan om zwart te zijn. En dat je daar als wit individu geen schuld aan hebt. Het is mooi meegenomen. "Het is toch iets makkelijker om een maatschappelijk probleem als racisme te begrijpen, als je in staat bent je eigen rol erin te erkennen." Waarop de witte mensen reageerden dat "het toch ook wel zo kan zijn dat de zwarte mensen te veel blijven vasthouden aan hun historische slachtofferrol. "Ja er is sprake van racisme, dat is voor iedereen vervelend maar we zijn geen Amerika. Er worden hier geen mensen (meer) aan bomen gehangen". Dit alles ging gepaard met liters wijn, sloffen sigaretten en massa's andere spirituele middelen. De avond eindigde in een emotioneel bloedbad. De donkere mensen gingen naar huis met het gevoel van 'zie je nou wel, dit had wederom geen enkele zin, wit privilege wordt niet erkend. Arghhhh'. De witte mensen gingen naar huis met het gevoel van 'He lekker. Goed dat ik heb gezegd waar het op staat.' Sinds die avond word ik nog regelmatig wakker met wat ik had willen zeggen, kunnen zeggen en had willen uitschreeuwen. Waarom is het zo moeilijk voor witte mensen (ook sommige donkere mensen) om te erkennen dat er sprake is van een bepaald systeem? Een systeem dat mensen met een bepaalde etniciteit begunstigt en mensen met een bepaalde etniciteit benadeelt. Een systeem dat voortkomt uit de economische constructie van gedwongen en onbetaalde arbeid; slavernij. Tot zover lijkt iedereen het te snappen en zonder schuldgevoel te accepteren. De mensonterende situatie van de tot slaaf gemaakte zien we allemaal voor ons. Niemand die dit een ander wil aandoen. Maar hoe eeuwenlange uitbuiting, kolonialisme (tot ver na de Tweede Wereldoorlog), de pseudowetenschappelijke 'rassenclassificatiesysteem' van de verlichtingsdenkers die leidde tot een raciale hiërarchie van superioriteit en inferiorit

In White Innocence Gloria Wekker explores a central paradox of Dutch culture: the passionate denial of racial discrimination and colonial violence coexisting alongside aggressive racism and xenophobia. Accessing a cultural archive built over 400 years of Dutch colonial rule, Wekker fundamentally challenges Dutch racial exceptionalism by undermining the dominant narrative of the Netherlands as a "gentle" and "ethical" nation. Wekker analyzes the Dutch media's portrayal of black women and men, the failure to grasp race in the Dutch academy, contemporary conservative politics (including gay politicians espousing anti-immigrant rhetoric), and the controversy surrounding the folkloric character Black Pete, showing how the denial of racism and the expression of innocence safeguards white privilege. Wekker uncovers the postcolonial legacy of race and its role in shaping the white Dutch self, presenting the contested, persistent legacy of racism in the country.

In recent years, more and more organisations have realised that diversity and inclusion in the workplace is both crucial and enormously beneficial. But how do you stop this realisation from remaining empty words and flashy statements, and turn awareness into action? In The Inclusion Marathon, Kauthar Bouchallikht and Zoë Papaikonomou interview 41 practitioners and researchers about their knowledge and experience within the field of diversity, equity and inclusion in the Netherlands. These experts discuss different approaches and the bumps and barriers they come across. The Inclusion Marathon is a revealing book exploring the persistent lack of diversity and equity within many organisations. At the same time, it is a constructive, concrete guide to how organisations may become more diverse, equitable and inclusive. The Inclusion Marathon is an extensive English summary of the Dutch book De inclusiemarathon.

Faith Race And Inequality Amongst Young Adults In South Africa written by Nadine Bowers Du Toit and has been published by African Sun Media this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on with Religion categories.
For many young South African adults (often called ‘born frees’), who were born just before or just after the demise of political apartheid, the ongoing realities of poverty and inequality bring to light the question of whether they truly are ‘free’ in contemporary South Africa? Their lived experiences of poverty and inequality seem to be in conflict with theologically laden concepts that remain prominent in social and political life, such as reconciliation, forgiveness, justice and restitution. This leads to a bi‑directional process of contesting, and being contested, by such notions and discourses. Furthermore, in light of the double legacy of both the church and youth as resisting injustice, this publication seeks to explore the many perspectives from which the Christian faith, race and inequality amongst youth can be brought to light.

This open access book discusses political, economic, social, and humanitarian challenges that influence both how people deal with their past and how they build their identities in contemporary Europe. Ongoing debates on migration, on local, national, inter- and transnational levels, prove that it is a divisive issue with regards to understanding European integration and identity. At the same time, the European Union increasingly invests in projects related to European heritage, museums, and cultural memory networks, while having to take dissonant heritages into account. These processes in their combination offer an interesting dynamic and form the complex puzzle that poses challenging questions for anyone involved in academic research, heritage practices, and policy debates. With this puzzle at its core, this book explicitly focuses on slippery and transforming notions of Europe and critically discusses ongoing and transforming power structures of heritage and memory in today’s Europe. The book combines theoretical and methodological contributions to the debates on European heritage and memory studies and in-depth analyses of empirical case studies. Its main aim is to bring research fields concerning memory and heritage into a closer dialogue and thus explore the cultural and political dynamics of contemporary Europe.

Black Shame offers a detailed analysis of the recruitment and deployment of – and reactions to – African soldiers in the WWI European theatre of war. In so doing, the book paints a vivid picture of the wider debates of race and national identity provoked by the use of African troops within the main actors on the WWI scene: France, Britain, Germany and even the US. Drawing on war-time attitudes, Dick van Galen Last explores the reality and long-term consequences of the participation of African regiments in the post-war occupation of the German territories. Wide-ranging, both geographically and thematically, the first publication of its kind, Black Shame adds a fresh, truly comparative perspective to the scholarship in the fields of imperial and military history, as well as war studies and postcolonial studies, and will appeal to academics and postgraduate students alike.

"The first group of [U.S.] interviews presented here took place in the Bay Area in California, in 1981. The experiences of these women should not be considered fully representative of the broader American situation. This area is traditionally considered "tolerant" and "mild" in terms of racism. In the 1960s, it was one of the most important centers of black resistance"--Page 145.
