Why Zwarte Piet is NOT Racist (in my humble opinion) (2017x79)

Ausstrahlung: Dez 05, 2017

It's that time of year again, pepernoten all around, carrots in clogs, coming together to sing Sinterklaasliedjes and various hitpieces from international newspapers targeting Zwarte Piet as a blackface, racist "colonial hangover" based on a slave. In this video I will defend Zwarte Piet and put forward why I believe he is far from racist and is actually a positive figure for black people in the Netherlands. Of course this is only my opinion and you may disagree - I'd love to hear all about it in the comment section although I do ask that everyone remains civil and respectful of one another.
