Zie ook de laatste nieuwsbrief : Many years ago in grade school (USA) a teacher asked us to introduce ourselves to the class and give a little biography. After class was over I was walking out when someone tapped my shoulder. I turned around and it was one of my classmates. She had bright red hair. She told me that her grandmother was born and raised in the Dutch East Indies. I almost fell over flat on the floor. No one ever knew what I was talking about – even the teachers – and this one girl with the bright red hair did. Many of us have a difficult time explaining to others what the Dutch East Indies means and how we are connected. Why ? They simply do not know.
