Discussion about relationality, with reflections on art (art work by Karel Blotkamp at VU), recent events in Israel/Gaza (Bersiap and the late 19th century poem by Roorda van Eysinga 'The last day of the Dutch in Java'), song traditions (protest/commemorative event at the execution date of Solomon Kalushi Mahlangu in 1979, and Fanon's final section in Peau noire, masques blanc 'Ma liberté ne m’est-elle donc pas donnée pour édifier le monde du toi? ' in the Dutch 1971 translation. It ends with a discussion about 'us' or 'you', the implicit relationality of 'shared' in policy jargon (shared heritage, shared values) and the problem of the use of 'safety' as an argument to develop restrictions for debate at the university.
