My favourite pieces from the “race and identity” archive I’ve compiled from living and working in the Netherlands for the last two years.

Nothing changes, sadly. And there are so many “deniers” (?sp) who will say either “it’s just a doll” or “I don’t see any when out in the shops” or “Black Pete is just soot covered”. As for the second one, maybe they need to come out to the places we go. They seem to be waiting to pounce in almost every gift shop we go to. We’re collecting a digital archive of our own from Ireland, Wales and YES ENGLAND.
Please just keep making people aware of this issue. If people like you, who are brave enough to speak up and confront it then we can hope it will some day go away. Otherwise it will continue insidiously for our grandchildren and their grandchildren. That would truly be a crime.
