• Archi, what's that racist thing that the Dutch do at Christmas?
    Ring any bells?

    Zwarte Piet / Black Pete. Who is St Nicks helper!
    The Dutch all think it's harmless fun. Except that when I chat to my colleagues from other ethnicities; they have the same opinion as I do and fail to see the harmless fun part.

    They celebrate on Dec 5th. St Nick and his servant, sorry helper, give presents to all the kids.
    Below pick says it all sigh
