Action with racist slogans creates a stir

Also projected on the bridge was the English-language phrase 'We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children', made famous by an American movement of white supremacists.
In the broadcast of current affairs Dutch programme EenVandaag (AVROTROS, NPO 1), Jan-Willem van Prooijen (LAW) explained how damaging such terms actually are.
In the weekend supplement LS of the Dutch daily newspaper De Limburger, Joep Leerssen (FASoS) elaborated on the current development of growing nationalism and ditto right-wing extremism.
