Description

Lecture | December 1 | 4-5 p.m. | 223 Moses Hall

Speaker/Performer: Jan Donkers

Sponsor: Dutch Studies

For decades, the Dutch have taken pride in the playful and relatively non-violent nature of the Provo Movement that shook Dutch society in the sixties. The way the protest movements of that decade were swiftly
encapsulated was typical of the traditional Dutch ability to compromise. For a while it seemed that the basis of a permissive society was agreed upon by all. But when the backlash eventually did arrive, it came with a
hint of vengeance.
