[quote=Anonymous]Sorry you are going through this. Sounds like my MIL who is Dutch and also insists that Black Peter is not racist. You cannot win the argument that Black Peter is racist. Seriously...she's way older and isn't going to change her mind. Invite her to celebrate the holiday only if you eliminate the Black Peter part. Your husband backed you up, right? If he needs encouragement, you can remind him that Black Peter is relatively new and directly tied to the history of slave trade by the Dutch. The story was first published in 1845 entitled “Saint Nicholas and his Servant” written by Schenkman. [/quote]
