Dutch Railway To Discuss New Reparations
Meeting would follow start of 'moral gesture' program to pay survivors, spouses and children. October 24, 2019 Representatives of the Dutch National Railway have agreed to meet with Jewish leaders to discuss making “a collective expression” that will recognize “the suffering and fate” of more than 100,000 Jews whom the railroad transported to their deaths in Nazi concentration camps during the Holocaust. The suggestion that the railroad consider making a “collective expression” was made by a committee created by the railroad in January to establish the company’s historical responsibility. https://jewishweek.timesofisrael.com...w-reparations/ |

Dutch government gives $2.76 million to restoring Jewish cemeteries
November 15, 2019 AMSTERDAM — The Dutch government has allocated $2.76 million toward the maintenance and restoration of Jewish cemeteries in the Netherlands. Culture Minister Ingrid van Engelshoven announced the funding last week in a letter to the lower house of the parliament. Local Jews have trouble maintaining the graves because the community’s numbers never recovered after the Holocaust. Dutch Jews suffered the highest death rate of any Western European country occupied by the Nazis, in part because of local collaboration. https://www.jta.org/quick-reads/dutc...ish-cemeteries |

Dutch national rail company offers $5.6 million for Holocaust-era transport of Jewish victims
June 26, 2020 AMSTERDAM — The Dutch national rail company said it would pay 5 million euros, or $5.6 million, to Holocaust commemoration institutions, including the museums at three former concentration camps, Westerbork, Vught and Amersfoort. Dutch Jews said the offer is disappointingly low and urged the company, NS, to reconsider. NS allocated more than $40 million last year toward compensating survivors. It has also spent millions of dollars on Holocaust commemoration projects. But the World Jewish Restitution Organization, or WJRO, and the Central Jewish Board of Dutch Jewish organizations said in a joint statement Friday that NS should also offer compensation directly to the families of the Jews it transported to their deaths. It is estimated that NS sent 102,000 Jews to be murdered during the Holocaust. https://www.jta.org/2020/06/26/globa...jewish-victims |

Many police around Mediapark in Hilversum after signals of riots
Many police officers are on their feet in and around the Media Park in Hilversum, after the police received signals that groups want to disrupt the rule of law there. According to a police spokesperson, these are groups that call themselves Defend and call on private platforms on social media to go to the Media Park. “The police anticipate that. Various scenarios are conceivable,” said the spokesman. He could not say how many police are present. https://netherlandsnewslive.com/many...-riots/307297/ Police put an end to demonstration in IJmuiden, also alert in other places The police have dispersed a group of people in IJmuiden who had gathered in a square in the center to demonstrate against the cabinet’s corona policy. The mayor issued an emergency order “due to serious fears for public order”, after which the mobile unit intervened. After the demonstrators dispersed at Plein 1945, they walked to surrounding residential areas. The police are now driving around with police vans. Social media called for “resistance” in unknown locations in the country today. 12-12-21 was called a symbolic date “to wake up the Netherlands”. According to a police spokesperson, these are groups that call themselves ‘Defend’. https://netherlandsnewslive.com/poli...places/307467/ Arrest in IJmuiden and area bans in Hilversum after protest In the Netherlands, groups that call themselves Defend demonstrated against the corona measures in several places on Sunday. A person was arrested in IJmuiden on Sunday for setting off fireworks after the Mobile Unit dispersed a group of dozens of demonstrators. Four protesters were banned from the Media Park in Hilversum. The municipality of Velsen, which IJmuiden falls under, issued an emergency order for Plein 1945. On Sunday, dozens of people gathered there to demonstrate against the corona measures. The police swept the square empty because of the order. Somewhat later, at the end of the afternoon, the police withdrew from the square. https://netherlandsnewslive.com/arre...rotest/307626/ |

Dutch king to retire golden coach with slavery images after racism row
Thu 13 Jan 2022 Dutch King Willem-Alexander has announced that he is mothballing – at least for now – the royal golden coach which has been embroiled in a racism controversy. The opulent horse-drawn carriage, called “De Gouden Koets”, has traditionally transported the Dutch monarch to the opening of parliament and other state occasions, but has not been used since 2015. At the centre of the slavery controversy is a picture on the left-side panel of the golden coach. Called “Tribute of the Colonies”, the image depicts kneeling black people handing over produce like cocoa and sugarcane to their white masters – including to a young white woman on a throne representing the Netherlands. Next to her, a young white man is seen giving a young black boy a book as he is presented by his subservient father, an image which painter Nicolaas van der Waay in 1896 said was meant to portray “civilisation”. “We cannot rewrite the past,” the Dutch king said an official video. But “we can try to accept it together. This also applies to the colonial past,” he added. “The Gouden Koets can only be used when the Netherlands is ready for it. And that is not the case at the moment,” he continued. After a complete renovation that lasted five years, the royal coach became the centrepiece of an exhibition in Amsterdam on the colonial past of the Netherlands. “The Gouden Koets won’t be used until the Netherlands is ready for it, and that’s not the case at the moment,” the king said. “As long as there are people living in the Netherlands who feel the pain of discrimination on a daily basis, the past will still cast its shadow over our time,” he added. In the Netherlands, as in other European nations, debate over the colonial past and slavery has resurfaced since the emergence of the Black Lives Matter movement in the United States. https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ter-racism-row |

New report highlights Dutch central bank’s links to slavers and the slave trade
February 9, 2022 Researchers at Leiden University have published a major report into the involvement of the Dutch central bank and its directors in slavery, highlighting the bank’s links to slave traders and their financial transactions. The bank commissioned the research in an effort to find a ‘more objective understanding of DNB’s links to slavery’ which the board said had been triggered by the growing historical awareness of the subject and the ongoing fight against racism in society. The research showed that the bank was involved in slavery in three ways. Part of its start-up capital came from business owners with direct interests in plantation slavery in the Atlantic region, for example in Suriname. Of the 16 initial major capital providers, 11 have now been linked to slavery. As an institution, the bank was indirectly involved in Dutch colonial slavery and slavery in non-Dutch areas, such as British Guiana, by supporting the Ministry of Colonies in its day-to-day payment transfers. It also provided services to trading houses involved in slavery. In addition, several prominent DNB officials were personally involved in colonial slavery with direct links with slavery-related businesses and the management of plantations. Only one or two were involved in organisations working to abolish slavery, the researchers found. ‘The facts that emerged from the study and the deeply racist beliefs that underlie them affect us deeply,’ bank president Klaas Knot said. ‘While we cannot undo the suffering that has been caused, we can, as DNB, try to contribute to healing by making this history visible, and by acknowledging the facts and the suffering they have caused.’ The bank is also planning to talk to both staff and representatives of civil society organisations, and is setting up an external focus group headed by Freek Ossel, who currently chairs the National Transatlantic Museum of Slavery. ‘We wish to find an appropriate manner to make a gesture of lasting value to those affected and Dutch society at large,’ Knot said. ‘Our historical links to slavery are a constant reminder that we must never cease to contribute to a society in which every person counts and in which no one is excluded.’ More details will be published later in the year. https://www.dutchnews.nl/news/2022/0...e-slave-trade/ |

Battle goes on for Dutch Holocaust survivors shut out of their own homes
May 17, 2022 Relatives of Jewish families whose homes were seized during the Second World War while they were detained in concentration camps are still fighting for compensation from local councils. During the housing shortage immediately after the war rules were drawn up allowing uninhabited homes to be allocated to local officials. Holocaust survivors often returned to find their homes were occupied by other people who refused to move out. The Jewish liaison council CJO estimates that several thousand people were deprived of their property in this way. They faced lengthy legal battles to reclaim their rights, especially in cases where ownership records had gone missing or been destroyed during the war. Some of them opted to sell their houses to the occupiers for well below the market value. ‘You were the owner, you’d lived there but someone else was in there,’ former CJO chair Ronny Naftaniel told Nieuwsuur. ‘If that was a civil servant you couldn’t get in. There are hundreds, possibly a few thousand cases where that happened.’ Groningen mayor Nieuwsuur featured the case of Hubert Blankenstein, who visited the home in Groningen where his parents lived before the war for the first time this year, at the age of 75. His mother was the only member of her family to survive the camps, but when she returned to the Netherlands her former house had been given to an official in the fire service. Later on the city’s mayor lived there. ‘My grandparents built this house and my mother and her brother grew up here before the war,’ he said. ‘I should have been born here 75 years ago, but my mother wasn’t allowed into her own house.’ Van Blankenstein is demanding an apology and €300,000 in compensation from Groningen city council, but has rejected an offer of mediation. The city’s current mayor, Koen Schuiling, said ‘the right thing had not been done’ in the case of Mrs van Blankenstein and the council was committed to putting the record straight. ‘We are going to talk to Mr van Blankenstein with the best and honest intentions so we can come to an agreement. We will learn the lessons of the past. The right thing did not happen. That’s what we’re going to do now.’ https://www.dutchnews.nl/news/2022/0...eir-own-homes/ |

Police need to tackle ‘structural problem’ of racism and discrimination
May 23, 2022 The police chief in charge of improving diversity in the force has acknowledged that it has a ‘structural problem’ with racism and discrimination, in response to a documentary focusing on officers with minority ethnic backgrounds. Six police personnel spoke of their experiences of being ignored, bullied or even dismissed after they complained about workplace discrimination. The documentary, De Blauwe Familie, is being broadcast on Monday evening on the NPO2 channel. Martin Sitalsing, head of the Midden-Nederland police division, called the documentary a ‘painful’ exposé and said: ‘We have a great deal of work to do in this area.’ Sitalsing and Noord-Nederland police chief Gery Veldhuis were given the task last year of making the Dutch police force more diverse and inclusive, with a target of raising the proportion of officers with a non-western origin to 35% in five years. Sitalsing has said that efforts to recruit more minority officers will only succeed if the police can offer them a safe working environment. https://www.dutchnews.nl/news/2022/0...iscrimination/ |

Investigation launched into Nazi looted art in Dutch parliament
24 may 2022 The Netherlands launched a major investigation to make sure that there is no Nazi-looted art in its collection, including paintings hung in museums, parliament, the Senate, embassies, and other government buildings, RTL Nieuws reports. The investigation was sparked by concerns about the painting "Fishing boats off the coast" by Hague painter Hendrik Willem Mesdag, which hung in the Tweede Kamer, the Dutch parliament, for years. There are indications that the Nazis may have stolen the painting from a Jewish family during the Second World War. Tweede Kamer president Vera Bergkamp had the painting taken down the moment she learned about the concerns. "When I read that, I immediately said it should be investigated as soon as possible. It is my moral responsibility to cooperate with his," Bergkamp said to the broadcaster. The Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands will examine all works in the Netherlands Art Property Collection that were returned from Germany by the Allies after the war. A similar investigation was done just after the war, but improved techniques may reveal new information. The research is expected to take around four years. "The entire collection consists of a total of 3,500 works of art," Dolf Muller of the Cultural Heritage Agency said to RTL Nieuws. If the researchers discover looted art in the Dutch collection, they'll do everything they can to find the original owner. Since World War II, the Netherlands has returned nearly a thousand Nazi-looted artworks to their original owners, almost always Jewish families. https://nltimes.nl/2022/05/24/invest...tch-parliament |

Dutch clubs to deploy 'smart technology' to fight fan racism
08/06/2022 Three top Dutch football clubs are taking part in pilot projects using smart technology including artificial intelligence to identify and fight racist behaviour by fans, the country's football federation announced Wednesday. Eindhoven-based PSV, Feyenoord in Rotterdam, and PEC Zwolle have started three different programmes designed to combat anti-social behaviour by fans including racist chants. "These solutions are now being developed and tested in the three stadiums and perhaps a fourth project will start later in the year," the Royal Dutch Football Federation (KNVB) said. "After one year, it should become clear whether, and how, these smart technologies have helped to identify racism and discrimination and to identify those responsible," it said in a statement. https://www.france24.com/en/live-new...ght-fan-racism |
