“One would expect Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands, who is said to have studied history, to know better and act better, but he too rejects all advice and criticism and runs around obliviously in a coach plastered with pictures of his grandmother abusing her captives, including women and children.

I wonder if he ever considered how their Calvinist pomposity affected the psyche of black and white children.” RacismSlaveryBigotryDutchDonald TrumpThe NetherlandsThe HagueDutch MonarchyWilhelminaGolden Coach Book:Roses in the Rainbow Source: Roses in the Rainbow

“Just as the Netherlands was the last country to abolish slavery, they are still the last one opulently celebrating racism; the English had to force the Dutch to abolish slavery in the late 19th century and now the US and the UN are forcing them to stop celebrating bigotry in the 21st century” SlaveryBigotryDutchThe NetherlandsThe HagueDutch MonarchyWilhelminaGolden Coach Book:Roses in the Rainbow Source: Roses in the Rainbow
