  3. Antwerp’s ‘human zoo’: Belgium confronts the shame of its colonial past.

    In 1894, when the Belgian city of Antwerp was hosting a World’s Fair, 144 Congolese people were forcibly brought to the city to be exhibited in the Congo Pavilion.

    In this “human zoo”, seven Congolese men ultimately died of disease.

    Today, this shocking episode still haunts Belgium as one of its colonial history’s darkest chapters.

  5. Moshe Aryeh Friedman of Neturei fucking Karta instigated the mohel witch hunt. And he's been falsely passing himself off as a Rabbi. Amazing. 🤯

    "...#Friedman initiated a criminal case against three #Jewish #mohels, ritual circumcisers, in #Antwerp.

    “There is no ambiguity,” the U.S. ambassador stated. “Mr. Friedman has no mandate whatsoever to speak on behalf of the Jewish community. He speaks only for himself.”

    [...]

    “His self-assigned titles should not be repeated as established fact, and any statements he makes must not be presented as reflecting the views of #Belgium’s #rabbis or the Jewish community.”

    White added that Friedman’s “lies and #Holocaust denial create #antisemitism and harms the Jewish people.”

    In 2006, Friedman attended an #Iranian foreign ministry two-day conference titled “Review of the Holocaust: Global Vision” that featured #Holocaustdenial and distortion."

  7. Commuting by bike.

    There are many ways for me to bike to work in Antwerp. My home and office are on opposite sides of the city, so each morning, I instinctively decide on which turns to take.

    This morning, I came by this view of the Cathedral. (Being on a bike, you can easily stop and take a photo.)

  11. Mars in Antwerp
    It had been a while since I spent a day in Antwerp, and there was an exhibition about Martial Arts at the MAS I really wanted to see. The hot weather made the prospect of spending some time in a cool museum irresistible, so when I saw a gap in my work schedule, I was on my way!
