Source: A newspaperarticle by Stephane Alonso, City of Brussel, NRC 22 September 2015.
I copy / translate a few lines:
1. It is like an EU diplomat says: the immigrants are faster than European decision making.
2. According to OESO, we are facing now the largest immigrant flow since WO II.
3. Frans Timmermans, the 'second man' of the EU commission, speeched on Friday 18 September 2015, warned about the severe reproaches from ' Eastern boys and Western girls' and vice versa. ' There is a scarcity on knowledge about each others sensitivities, cultures and histories'.
4. The dynamics of the immigrantsflow has been radically changed in one week time!!!!
5. Immigrants do not register themselves, they want to go to Sweden, Germany and the Netherlands as fast as possible.
6. A prediction of a EU diplomat: It is going to be ugly.
7. On the half page large picture above the written text is a photo printed, it shows only young men with muscles, very good swimmers.
Wow! September 2015. Unfortunately, hardly anybody reads or understand Dutch nor EU diplomatics. And hardly anybody knows Timmermans if you compare it with Hollande and Merkel. I was severely in mourning by that time, because the professor, the promotor for my PhD history just
had had an heartattack and died, 63 years old, broken. He wad the same age ad Vladimir Poetin, who is still alive and kicking.
What now? Shall I continue my PhD with the subject Green Architecture or...
I really think I have to change something, because all cultural effects because of WOII are not over. And I predict, not for a long long time. Because, we, the posterity, the descendants, are still very capable of humiliation. And also my father, 78 years old, all of a sudden, started to talk about his memories on WOII. He was between 4 and 8 years of age, as old as my son is now. He had to endure the Hungerwinter, 1943-1944, city of Haarlem, the Netherlands, as skinny as he was already. While the mayor of the city of Haarlem, then, during WOII was a NSB personality, not taking care of the
citizens of Haarlem, at least, not taking care, not managing their most basic needs.
That is really a fact.
And this is a Great Theme: Doing the Right Thing and Do It Now.
One of the things of doing the right thing is: not to be humiliating.
Read my lips: a big theme today, still is HUMILIATION
So, the question is: how to control our humiliating ways of saying and doing. With the civilized aim to respect one another in mind and action.
And I think I have the solution: we have to stop Seeing each other, in public life as man and woman, because this is a too biological approach, not a civilized approach. We have to start to see each other
as persons and this has to be written in newspapers as consequent as possible. Probably a new dresscode is one of the consequences as well! And that is going to be the toughest thing for black, yellow, red, braun and white persons who are used to wear suits.
Everybody has to go and wear a dress in public life. You know, dresscode! Think first, please, before opening your mouth or start moving your fingers impulsively on one or other machine!
What a golden opportunity for the Vetements industry! Abandon all suits and ties, introduce the most comfortable dresses for going public.
Freedom of body mobility for all! What a brilliant idea! I can picture it all in my head.
Can you?
And off course, do not through your suit away, that would be such a waste, wear your suit at home, because a lot has to be managed at home. We have to read and talk about so much history, sensitivities and cultures. Not NIKE, not just do it. Be calm and explore on your iPad all the texts and pictures on European history. Maybe there is even more need of topmanagers at home and more need of welldressed persons in public life.
