America is on the minds of many Dutch people, perhaps now more than usual. Current events in America demand our attention every day because similar developments are taking place in Europe and in our own country. So understanding America is very important. America is a beautiful vacation country, a country of limitless possibilities. But it doesn't apply to everyone and it doesn't apply everywhere. It's a torn country, there are huge political divides, the disparity between rich and poor has never been greater, freedom to bear arms leads to incredible tragedy and the racial divide in 1968 (50 years ago) is real. Officially abolished does not mean discrimination no longer exists. It would be good to know how it got to this point. As the election approaches, we must realize what is at stake and what could happen. Enough talking.

Kenneth Manusama

On March 13, 2024 Mr. Kenneth Manusama can answer the above questions and many more in his lecture.
