Interesting article, but the comment about "dutch courage":

"Yes, even the Dutch were not spared from the racism."

isn't really correct. Dutch courage has been an expression for alcohol-induced courage for centuries. Even in the early 20th century it wasn't making a comment on the Dutch, just using a common expression. Is that expression still common in the US? It certainly is in the UK.

Rather nitpicky though...
