In 10 years they managed to ban blackface icon Black Pete from the Dutch holiday Sinterklaas in almost every place in the Netherlands. It wasn't easy as some of their protests erupted in actual riots and they were under constant threat of the far right. Still, they managed to kick out a racist caricature. Thank you all for your efforts ✊🏼

Because they're prbly re-organizing... (without the issue of zwarte piete, there is no 'kick out zwarte piete' until it re-emerges)
