UM Agora Soireé

-

UM AGORA hosts an interactive discussion evening for the Limburg region about the Dutch controversy surrounding Black Pete.

Together we explore how the issue unleashed intense emotions in The Netherlands. Dr. Ulrike Mueller provides a socio- historical perspective on the controversy, then two panelists share their experiences to engage the audience in the discussion. The soirée is bilingual.
Interpreters will translate from English into Dutch and vice versa. If you want to use our translation service, please bring a smartphone and earphones.
