Amsterdam's "Inclusive" Children's Book: State-Sanctioned Racism Against Chinese
Amsterdam distributed a book to 60,000 schoolchildren for its 750th anniversary. In square 42: "Ni Hao! Chinese tourists block the bicycle path. To avoid them, go back to square 39." This deliberately references the 2013 "Holland's Got Talent" incident where judge Gordon mocked Chinese contestant Xiao Wang with "Which number are you singing? Number 39 with rice?" and called him "the best Chinese I've had in weeks, not takeaway." The hypocrisy is staggering. The companion book "Feest in Amsterdam" was criticized by Dutch politicians for being TOO inclusive - featuring Keti Koti, Eid al-Fitr, Holi festivals, and same-sex marriages. So Amsterdam celebrates Black history, Muslim holidays, Hindu festivals, and LGBTQ+ rights, but officially labels Chinese people as "obstacles." Would they DARE write "Muslim/Jewish/African tourists block the path"? Never. Such content would trigger immediate recalls and criminal charges. Yet anti-Chinese racism remains officially sanctioned in educational materials. For decades, while other minorities gained protection through political correctness, Chinese communities were denied basic dignity. We're the only group still considered acceptable targets for state-sponsored mockery. This isn't casual prejudice - it's systematic indoctrination of 60,000 children, teaching them that among all ethnicities, only Chinese people deserve exclusion. The publisher's refusal to apologize confirms it: in the West's "inclusive" hierarchy, we remain at the bottom. Amsterdam's "tolerance" includes everyone - except those they reduce to takeout menu numbers. 2013 Gordon racist incident: https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/holland-talent-racist-judge-gordon-heuckeroth-refuses-525315
