Aflevering How To Deal With Our Colonial Past | Lecture By Activist Lucas Johnson

How to deal with our colonial history and the slavery in our past? Both in the Netherlands and in the United States, we are struggling with bad episodes in our histories; the wrongdoings in our national pasts. In the Netherlands, the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art is getting a new name, and there is an ongoing discussion about Zwarte Piet. In the USA, one need only think of recent commotion about the removal of Confederate statues. Come listen as the American civil rights activist Lucas Johnson explains the American situation as well as his point of view about Dutch debates.
