A black one

Quote of this time”

“A black moved to our street. How shall the value of our houses drop!”

Quote overheard my a lovely lady who moved to live in a town in 1980 in the  Netherlands. Just to show how sick the minds of a group of white people were back at those days… It is almost 29 years ago but nowadays it might still happen.

I remember the time I was working at an audit firm where they had a client. They told their auditor (my employer) I only want white people, no colored people or from any other country. De facto only white born and raised people. Just a little detail: the client was a Jewish diamond dealer/seller.

For my Dutch readers just the translation of the quote (I think you can understand the meaning of it and the text above; if not let me know by leaving a reply):

Citaat van dit keer:

“Er is een zwartje komen wonen in de straat. Wat zullen onze huizenprijzen dalen zeg!”
