RE: Market Friday Shops for Freedom

in #marketfriday5 years ago

I liked reading your post. I wonder why you can celebrate July 4th and if Dutch people would do so we are insulting people. By now I do not think we celebrate anything anymore.
The market I was looking for 2 weeks ago and I could not find it. Perhaps it is gone or only because of the weather?
I wish you a happy day.

I'm not sure why we can celebrate and you cannot. I don't see it as an insult, as it happened WAAAAY before my time and my celebration is not because of the war, or winners or losers, but, rather of the birth of our nation. I understand what you are saying as it may feel like an insult, but, honestly, that isn't what is meant.

I am not sure of Dutch History and only know of the eighty years war. Now I will have to look it up.

No worries about the Market! It is still nice to see you! As always, I hope you have a most wonderful day!

By now I am also not sure of the Dutch history. It seems to be a forbidden something by now and so wrong. My mom is Dutch my father isn't and if it comes to back in history it is the question who lived where/which life back than.

Thanks for the tip.

Who know I find a market once

Well, I looked up Dutch History last night on Google and I found it fascinating, truly. You should look it up, if only for your own curiosity. It does have more twists and turns, but, you have been around much longer than we have. ;)

Any type of market, I even do the services I pay for. :) Nails, Movies, Restaurants. I must say my people get inventive! :) Have a most wonderful day and thank you!

I know about the dutch history. They weree and are all over the world by now painted as abusers because of history. Seems as if they are the only one's with slaves so the history will be rewritten. Celebration days forbidden.

I noticed your people are very inventive.

America was built on slave labor! Not a proud moment in history and one of the reasons for the Civil War here.

Maybe I am naive, but, I have never seen the Dutch in any other light except friendly and helpful to me. But,what do I know? I lived in Europe as a guest and was always treated with dignity and respect by all. It was the most I could ever dream of.

And I loved it there. Inventive. Oh, I am sure that you are right. Haha.

I also do not understand it. Most European countries had colonies oversea and slaves and even human zoos.

This beside of the fact the Africans sold there own people and neighbours as a slave and even did so long after slavery was forbidden (long is about 100 years). For some reason they ignore their own part in history and still do.

Each country has parts we now think different about, but it is still history and you can not wipe it out by changing facts or wiping out celebration days.

Well, we will see. The Kalergi plan is used to build 1 Europe with the hope we have one history together. That will be a great one. Forcing people to forget, hate, rape, all in the name of?

I hope to join soon.
