Saturday 26 May RNW - NEWS AND ANALYSIS FROM THE NETHERLANDS IN 10 LANGUAGES, WORLDWIDE 24/7 ON RADIO, TV AND ONLINE

Multiculti-Dutch, yes, but not in my backyard

Published on 25 August 2011 - 11:50am
More about:

Non-immigrant Dutch people say they want their children to grow up in a multicultural society, but would actually prefer their own kids to live in a white neighbourhood and go to a non-mixed school.

This is the conclusion of research carried out by the monthly magazine J/M voor Ouders. A cross-section of parents, 588 in all, were interviewed for the piece.

The magazine says 80 percent of the parents acknowledge the advantages of growing up in a society made up of different cultures. However, 57 percent worry about the position of their white children in a mixed-race society.

There is only one race: the human race. And, for sure, in the long run we'll all be dead.The South African whites despised the"brakkies" as they called the mixed-race people and the Dutch don't seem to be better, in a racial sense, than the South African Boers.
