Conversation with Eileen Fisher
At the 2015 Global Philanthropists Circle Members Meeting
Eileen Fisher is designer and founder of Eileen Fisher, Inc. Here she talks with Peggy Dulany about the value of mindfulness and reflection on a personal level and with her company.
PEGGY DULANY: So Eileen and I met by phone about a week ago. And, well, I can only speak for myself, but I fell in love. This is going to be an easy and joyful conversation. And I hope that once you get into it any nervousness you might be feeling just disappears. So I think a place to start might be how you came into mindfulness because those of us who are still struggling with that need, need an entry point. So if you can tell us a little bit about your personal history that would be great.
EILEEN FISHER: Good. Okay, thank you. First of all, I want to say I have a couple of pretty hard acts to follow. So I'm a, I'm a pretty shy person so this is very hard for me but I'm trying so bear with me. So how I got into mindfulness myself, I think I came in more or less through the doorway of yoga. When I was in my late 20's I, I did yoga and I'm actually, don't actually know how I got into mindfulness because I had seemed to come in through a lot of doorways. I've always been a, a seeker and a self-help junkie, and read all of those books and so it's, whether it's Jack Kornfield, or Jon Kabat-Zinn, or Thich Nhat Hanh, or the Dalai Lama, Dan Goleman, Dan Siegel, I, you know, Emotional Intelligence, all of it, everything, I love it all.
I just, you know, want to be a better person. I don't know, maybe somewhere inside I don't think I'm okay enough. I don't know what, where that comes from but so, but anyway, I actually started, I'm trying to think. I'm going to say when I started doing yoga more regularly about 15 years ago was when I started meditating regularly. And then I ended up at the Chopra Center I'm going to say maybe ten years ago and that really kind of anchored my daily practice.
DULANY: And, so, this may be too personal, and you can decline to answer, but a lot of us consciously or unconsciously don't feel we're good enough. Are there stories from your life where you kind of suddenly got aware that you didn't feel good enough?
FISHER: I think it's been ongoing. I was a kid with cross eyes. And I was just a pretty uncomfortable kid so I had trouble connecting. I had trouble being comfortable. So I always feel not good enough so.
DULANY: Can I see a show of hands of people who have felt that at some point in their lives?
FISHER: Oh, great. I'm not alone.
DULANY: No, definitely not. Yeah. But the amazing thing. I mean many people start to practice mindfulness but you've managed to bring it into your business. Can you tell a little bit about that?
FISHER: Yes. Well, I think it was ten years ago also around then. We ended up at a company offsite visioning the future of the company. And I had been, of course, into mindfulness for a while at that point and doing yoga and things like that. And, and one of our priorities came out of that meeting and it was presence was the priority for the company, being present, that all of us could be present 'cause we thought we would just do better work if we were all more present. So, one of our business leaders heard this idea that you could have a moment of silence before meetings and so she actually introduced the idea, which was better than me because I was the creative sort of it wasn't that I was flaky but, you know, being creative and being into all this kind of spiritual stuff, you know, I had tried to bring dance, and yoga, and other things into the company.
And though we did that and with our wellness benefit in terms of bringing it into meetings and, you know, into another level like that I think it took somebody who was more in the business, more kind of respected from a business standpoint. So she introduced it and actually it really took hold. We ring a bell and we have at least a minute of silence before most meetings. Some departments still don't buy into this idea, but we try-
DULANY: Which departments are those?
FISHER: Um, ooh, let's see. Um, that's a good question. I think I better not name the department.
DULANY: Okay. That's all right. Even though you're not being recorded it's okay. And how did-, you have investors in the company, right?
DULANY: We have, we're an ESOP, 40% employee owned. So we don't actually have outside investors, although I considered going public at one point. And I was told my growth plan wasn't aggressive enough but I actually realized that it wasn't what I wanted to do in the process of thinking about it and that I guess when I thought about what would happen when I passed on I wasn't so sure I just wanted a lot of strangers who didn't care about the work we were doing to be holding the business. And so it seemed to make more sense to sell to the employees. So that was sort of a win-win. I would've made probably twice as much money or more times, who knows, if I had gone public or sold to a venture capitalist or something. I decided not to do that.
DULANY: Well, that in itself is a value statement, right? Yeah. So, I was going to ask how the investors might have felt about your bringing mindfulness in but the relevant thing is how did the employees feel?
FISHER: Yeah. I think the employees some were very mixed at first. And now most people just like appreciate it's just a little break. It's just a moment. And in fact we have these consultants that we use and they love the idea so much that they take it out to the different organizations that they work with. And they don't call it "meditation" or even "mindfulness." They call it "a moment of pause" because everyone needs a little break to transition from meeting to meeting just to have a little space.
DULANY: Yeah. Just following up on that, why is it that we need that so much 'cause I totally agree that we do?
FISHER: Oh, that's very good. I think that, I think it helps us to get to more clarity, to make better decisions, to come into the moment. Like we're all carrying baggage. We were talking about baggage. For me it's family stuff, or it's whatever that we carry into the meetings. Or we just carry the last meeting into this meeting and our minds are going a mile a minute. So if we just can stop when we come into the meeting then we, we have more chance of making more conscious choices. And what we've seen that's actually been very interesting is a real sort of deepening of the work, and more caring, and more seeing the opportunities from where each different person sits about what they can do to make difference through the company. So it's been very interesting. We've had people just totally light up around sustainability.
We have massive efforts in the company to change the way we do business from our dye houses, to organic cotton, and organic linen, and chlorine-free wool, I mean just all those levels. People see how they can treat each other differently. People see how we can work together better, just so many different opportunities.
DULANY: And do you ever mention breathing before these pauses?
FISHER: We do actually. I know I have to work on that one myself 'cause I breathe a little too shallowly. But we do and actually that, you hit a point that's really interesting to me because what I'm playing with now is actually beyond, even more for me than breathing is the whole idea of embodiment. I've been working with, around somatic work, somatic experiencing work and finding. And I think coming out of being a clothing designer and coming at this through yoga, and movement, and that kind of thing I'm finding that the idea of getting into our bodies. So, in the moment of silence we're playing with we haven't brought this part too much into the company, we do it a little bit but we're playing with it on the side in our learning lab around the idea of taking that minute of silence and actually using it as a way to bring ourselves into our bodies because our bodies are a way to access our intuition.
In our company it matter-, it's around creativity, intuition, our instincts about what, what's going on here, what's going on underneath, all of that. I think the more embodied we are the more conscious, and mindful, and more enlivened, and the more hopefully joy, gratitude, all those things come along with it.
DULANY: And so many practices and research supports that. So, first of all, if we don't breathe we don't kind of open up our system. And if we don't move, if we have fear or stuck places it gets stuck somewhere in the body.
FISHER: Right. That's right.
DULANY: So sometimes we think yeah.
FISHER: It's really good.
DULANY: So sometimes we think we have to think our way through it, which probably stops our breathing even more and makes us sit even stiller 'cause we're so tense. And so somehow getting up, even just raising your arms up. Anybody who feels like doing it do it right now and take a big, deep breath. And just even one breath like that can have quite an amazing effect. So I'm really glad you're doing that.
FISHER: That's so great. Are you familiar with Peter Levine?
DULANY: No. No, but I'm going to write it down when I go back there.
FISHER: Oh, Peter Levine does work around fear. And he talks about an-, with animals when they're afraid they go into fight-flight-or freeze mode. They shut down. And actually we have a nerve in our body called the polyvagal nerve that connects up everything in our body. And when we go into fear mode it shuts down. And so for animals, they play dead and that's what happens to us when we're afraid. And so our minds go blank. Our digestion might shut down. Our, you know, our capacity to engage and connect stops. So for me I live in fear and so I recognized this idea right away that, especially, and that's why I struggle with public speaking because of fear. It's so extreme. And I heard that it's not just me. I heard that people are in general more afraid of public speaking than they are of death.
So that explains why I'm terrified up here. Isn't that crazy? But actually, read Peter Levine's book, or Diane Poole Heller. She's-anyway, I'm not going to advertise my favorite people.
DULANY: No, who's the other one?
FISHER: Oh, this woman Diane Poole Heller. She does somatic work. She doesn't have a book but she has DVDs, which helps with, you know, we were talking about that family stuff, and kindness, and how difficult it is to be kind and with your family. And, well, maybe I'm going to go off here but I want to tell a quick story about, we were talking about triggers. And so with family what happens is, I find not just with family but often with family, particularly with family, that I get triggered. You know, like somebody says something and it triggers something from the past. And so I've been doing this work, this somatic work this woman Diane Poole Heller. And she has this set of DVDs. And so I followed along on one of her DVDs. I had this situation-I'm not sure if this is on topic but-it was with my ex-husband and every time I would hear his voice I would shut down, just my brain would stop working. And so I started following along in these DVDs. I came to understand this shut down thing that happened to me and I didn't do anything in particular. I followed along this DVD with one exercise and then two days later I saw my ex-husband and went for dinner with my son and daughter. And afterwards they both said, "What was different, Mom? You were talking. You know, you were so engaged. You know, the room felt so different." And I realized that I was no longer triggered, that I was free of the, of this emotional impact from the past that would shut me down and make me freeze. So I'm praying for the day that that'll happen when I'm in front of a room.
DULANY: How are you feeling right now?
FISHER: I'm feeling pretty good. Thank you. I'm so glad you're into what I'm into. Anyway, that's maybe a little off topic but I think the fear is what gets in my way from actually being a better business owner, a better philanthropist, a better speaker, for using my voice, for really, doing what Bobby does and just like getting out there and saying what's on my mind and making a difference in that way. So, I'm working on fear and I'm working on not being triggered because I and then I want to figure out how to share that with everyone.
DULANY: Well, it sounds like you are actually, I mean with your employees.
FISHER: Yes. We're trying. We're trying. We're actually starting a learning lab because I'm so passionate about this work and getting everyone freed up so that they can make the biggest contributions possible.
DULANY: That is so great.
FISHER: Fear; I'm glad you're doing a thing on fear this afternoon. I'm staying for it. Who's doing that?
DULANY: Oh, good. Oh, I am.
FISHER: You're doing it?
DULANY: Yes.
FISHER: So you know this stuff. I'll help you. Okay, good.
DULANY: I know it so intimately.
FISHER: Great. It's so intense. Okay, go ahead. What other questions?
DULANY: Yeah, so, I mean I think it's probably people who don't get into practicing this and don't see the connections with everything else but some people say pursuing mindfulness is an elite, or a task, or it's for the elites, or it's a luxury. So I'm curious, A, how you feel about that because you now are a leader but you're making it available to your employees, who presumably aren't of the elite.
FISHER: Yeah. Well, I think it's for everyone obviously. I mean I think that maybe we have more time sometimes to go to programs. I've been lucky to be able to go to different kind of programs and have access maybe to learn these tools. So I think making those more accessible and I know people are doing that through schools, and through hospitals, all kinds of opportunities so I'm trying to do it through business. So I think it should be available to everyone because actually I think we're all leaders, and the more we are all able to be present the more we'll be able to make a difference.
DULANY: So can I give my theory on that?
FISHER: Sure. Yes.
DULANY: First of all, I totally agree that fear is, fear blocks us. It blocks our heart, and secondly that it blocks our ability to listen because we're so consumed by our own insecurities, or fears, or whatever that we're, they're like in the way of our being able to see and hear. And, so it's by the forms of mindfulness that we practice in any circumstance, I would extend that to war, that we're able to calm the fears, legitimate as they may be, enough to be able to hear the other person. And, you know, Meng was talking about, about spreading this to the world. I think that's one of the ways we get to do it. So that's my philosophy.
FISHER: Well, I like what you're saying about listening because I think about it as not being able to speak as my mind goes blank. But you're absolutely right. It's also about listening.
DULANY: Yeah. And it's almost the same thing because if you're so paralyzed with fear about speaking then it's hard to listen to anybody else.
FISHER: Right. You're worried about what you're going to say next rather than trying to hear what they're saying and connect.
DULANY: Yeah. So, the last question I have actually is you've been doing this for 30 years and you've been talking about beginning to let go. So, first of all, what does that mean for you? And as a business and philanthropic leader how would you see that process taking shape and, yeah?
FISHER: Oh, that's a great question. I was thinking of it as letting go and now I'm thinking of it as leaning in and letting go. So, a few things have happened. So over the last five or ten years I've been trying to let go and grow other people in the organization to take over. And I was moving into my foundation, and starting a girls' program, and recycling program, and other initiatives. And then I realized that, whoa, right there in the center of my company I can do a lot. So I found myself back in, in the center doing things like saying yes to the deeper sustainability work and saying yes to a lot of different initiatives and projects, and actually shifting how we use money, looking at how fast we're growing and how we can think differently about that. Where was I going with this? Bring me back to your question. Leaning in and letting go. So, but now I'm also thinking how-, I guess what I'm really passionate about is I'm realizing that I'm trying to lean in to let go in a new way, in a deeper sort of way. So to make the company something that's basically, hopefully a new model for a different way of doing business. So it's not enough to just leave a clothing company intact that feels like a profitable, sustainable business but I see a huge opportunity to just actually create something new and different. And we don't actually know what the model is yet. We're playing with it but so that's where I am.
DULANY: Great. I'm sure there are a lot of people in the room, I know there are a lot of people in the room, who are contemplating letting go themselves. And-
FISHER: It's a hard one-
DULANY: so, it is a hard one. And we each have to find our own path. But hearing other stories is problem one of the things that, that will inspire us. And I want to say one thing to you as we close this session and go to lunch. What I've found is that if one can get over enough fear to allow one's self to be publicly vulnerable, as you have just been, it is extremely heart opening and it then allows other people to feel safe enough to then become vulnerable. So I'd like to thank you for your vulnerability.

Had to add the following to make function arguments appear without glitches: MY_out = outputs[key][2].replace(' ', '\n') MY_out = MY_out.replace('>', ' ') xml += '\t\t\t<Overload retVal="" descr=%s>\n' % MY_out Otherwise really cool and useful. Many thanks !
Cool project for beginners. Pb: when I run python generate_python_autocomplete.py < imports.py > python.xml I get this error: line 30 Print 'NAME' Syntax Error: Invalid Syntax (with a cursor pointing to below the second single quote) Any help? Thx! Clement
Thank you for your efforts. Really helpful for python beginners. (like me)

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (1869-1948) was one of the few men in history to fight simultaneously on moral, religious, political, social, economic, and cultural fronts. During his time as a lawyer in South Africa he developed his strategy of non-violence: the idea of opposing unjust laws by non-violent protest. He led the Indian National Congress party in three major campaigns against British rule, each culminating in his arrest.
In Gandhi, a short introduction to Gandhi's life and thought, Bhikhu Parekh outlines both Gandhi's major philosophical insights and the limitations of his thought. Written with extensive access to Gandhi's writings in Indian languages to which most commentators have little or no access, Parekh looks at Gandhi's cosmocentric anthropology, his spiritual view of politics, and his theories of oppression, non-violent action, and active citizenship. He also considers how the success of Gandhi's principles were limited by his lack of coherent theories of evil, and of state and power. Gandhi's view of man as ascetic allows no room for expressions of the cultural, artistic, or intellectual. Furthermore, he was so hostile to modern civilization that he was unable to appreciate its complex dialectic or offer a meaningful narrative.
Nevertheless, Gandhi's life and thought had an enormous impact on the Indian nation, and he continues to be widely revered -- known before and after his assassination as Mahatma, the Great Soul.
The Arcanum of the 'fallen angel' Lucifer evokes such concepts as heresy, rebellion, pride, liberation from the bonds of demiurgic oppression, and impetus for human evolution. Meaning 'light bearer', Lucifer has, from his earliest origins, been hailed by religious and artistic countercultures as a patron saint of enlightenment -- the essential quality embodying overthrow of ignorance and the inspired process of revelation. Allied to ancient Gnostic cosmological concepti...More

The Purpose of Multicult-Speak: Killing the Canadian in the Child
The Purpose of Multicult-Speak: Killing the Canadian in the Child
"The purpose of Newspeak was not only to provide a medium of expression for the world-view and mental habits proper to the devotees of IngSoc, but to make all other modes of thought impossible. It was intended that when Newspeak had been adopted once and for all and Oldspeak forgotten, a heretical thought — that is, a thought diverging from the principles of IngSoc — should be literally unthinkable, at least so far as thought is dependent on words. Its vocabulary was so constructed as to give exact and often very subtle expression to every meaning that a Party member could properly wish to express, while excluding all other meaning and also the possibility of arriving at them by indirect methods. This was done partly by the invention of new words, but chiefly by eliminating undesirable words and stripping such words as remained of unorthodox meanings, and so far as possible of all secondary meaning whatever." http://www.newspeakdictionary.
George Orwell, 1948
Multiculturalism is Canada's Ingsoc. The ideology of a "soft" totalitarian state. A state that does not need gulags, detention camps, or torture chambers to achieve its goals because the ruling political class can "manufacture consent" through its control of the media, the universities, and government departments. To use Marxist terminology, the political class— the ruling class–does not need to control the "infrastructure", it only needs to control the "superstructure". It is far more important, for their purposes, to control the CBC than it would be to control any major corporation listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
The most effective way to promote this ideology of "Diversity and Tolerance" and Cultural relativism (Marxism) is to shape the language, to supplant "Oldspeak" with "Newspeak", to replace accurate descriptions with euphemisms, to make it impossible for younger generations to think subversive thoughts by putting them in a verbal straight-jacket. The point is not simply to deny them the words they would need to express critical thoughts, but through the loss of these words to deny them the ability to form critical thoughts.
Is this not what has been happening, step by step, in the last forty years, picking up speed as time by passes by? Dumbing young people down by displacing plain standard English with PC jargon? Displacing critical thinking with ideologically programmed responses? Is this not what Canadian universities do now? Is that not their mission? The goal of a liberal arts "education"? Are Canadian universities not just boot-camps of political correctness, factories to churn out soldiers for Multicult Group-Think? Soldiers who one day will occupy the newsrooms, cabinet rooms, staff rooms and board rooms of the nation?
Long ago an American military officer concluded that in order to complete the conquest, displacement and assimilation of Native Americans, "We must kill the Indian in the child". In other words, for any colonial agenda, the final solution to the native "problem" must involve the eradication of native culture—and that culture is best transmitted through its language. It's a habitual strategy. English occupiers tried to do that in Wales and Ireland and the Department of Indian Affairs tried to that in Residential Schools here. Now we are doing it to ourselves in our universities. Or rather, they are doing it to us.
Who are "they"? They are not our colonial occupiers, but their handmaidens, the Puppet Intelligentsia, the political class who are paving the way for our ongoing conquest by dressing it up as an opportunity to enjoy more "diversity". Hence the invention of a language and a vocabulary which can frame the invasion in positive terms, and exclude alternative interpretations.
How ironic is it then, that by displacing Oldspeak with Multi-cult Newspeak, young Canadians are able to become reconciled to their own displacement. The political class is killing the Canadian in the child.

Laurier Students' Public Interest Research Group (LSPIRG) has been operating on the Waterloo campus since 2005 and have recently opened a Brantford office as of 2016. We are an incorporated not-for-profit organization that helps community members develop advocacy tools, operating autonomously from the university to uniquely serve both students and community members.
We fund independent and community oriented research projects through CCRLA (The Centre for Community Research Learning and Action), provide Board and Steering Committee experience, offer many different volunteer opportunities, and work with students and community members to raise awareness on a range of social and environmental justice issues.
LSPIRG is funded through membership dues, paid automatically by students via the student levy and paid voluntarily by all other community members.
COMMUNICATIONS AND OUTREACH DIRECTOR - Waterloo/Brantford
Jay is a white settler residing on the traditional territory of the Anishnawbe, Haudenosaunee, and Neutral nations (as well as on the Haldimand Tract). They identify as a Tran non-binary queer person. They are passionate about a range of social justice and environmental issues and advocate for community and relationship building as a way to move towards a more inclusive future. They are always up for some conversations on anything and everything (as ranting is a pretty solid form of self-care). firstname.lastname@example.com
VOLUNTEER & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT DIRECTOR - Waterloo
Hannah is a queer femme white settler residing ont he traditional territory of the Anishnawbe, Haudenosaunee, and Neutral nations (as well as on the Haldimand Tract). She finds grounding being outside and in poetry, and in creating movements and community that allow for our full selves to be present. Hannah strongly believe that we must root ourselves in the understanding of collective liberation and creating pathways to re-exist outside of the currently contexts of violence. Please know that she is available to talk about strategy and movements, life struggles, hold space for those well deserved rants and what you are trying to contextualize in your own journey and growth. email@example.com
Jaydene Lavallie
VOLUNTEER & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT DIRECTOR - Brantford
Jaydene is a queer Michif-Cree woman who is always on the move. She finds strength in being around trees and other femme folks. She firmly believes that building community is just as important as direct action and embraces employing a diversity of tactics to achieve collective goals. Her door is always open to talk life, politics, social justice, or strategy. As a long term committed activist and a Laurier alumni who won campaigns on campus during her student years, she is always looking for new folks who want to start/keep learning and take action. email@example.com.
LSPIRG is officially multi-campus! Thank you to everyone who has made the new Brantford office possible!

Metronomic Therapy in Metastatic Breast Cancer.
This trial is active, not recruiting.
|breast cancer
|bevacizumab, paclitaxel, bevacizumab, cyclophosphamide, capecitabine
|phase 3
|Swiss Group for Clinical Cancer Research
|Start date
|June 2010
|End date
|December 2012
|Trial size
|142 participants
|Trial identifier
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, cyclophosphamide, and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether bevacizumab is more effective when given together with paclitaxel or cyclophosphamide and capecitabine in treating patients with breast cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying the side effects of giving bevacizumab together with paclitaxel and to see how well it works compared with giving bevacizumab together with cyclophosphamide and capecitabine as first-line therapy in treating women with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic breast cancer.

|Official title
|Safety and Tolerability of Bevacizumab Plus Paclitaxel vs. Bevacizumab Plus Metronomic Cyclophosphamide and Capecitabine as First-Line Therapy in Patients With HER2-Negative Metastatic or Locally Recurrent Breast Cancer - A Multicenter, Randomized Phase III Trial.
|OBJECTIVES: - To determine if bevacizumab and paclitaxel versus bevacizumab, metronomic cyclophosphamide, and capecitabine as first-line therapy causes less medication-related adverse events in women with HER2-negative metastatic, locally advanced, or recurrent breast cancer. - To compare quality of life (QOL) in patients treated with these regimens. - To replicate previous findings of better QOL in patients with complete response or partial response versus stable disease for 6 months or greater. - To determine the predictive value of baseline QOL for the duration of a meaningful change in QOL of patients treated with chemotherapy. - To determine the associations between the QOL endpoints, selected health economics, and clinical endpoints. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to tumor response (measurable vs evaluable disease), WHO performance status (0 or 1 vs 2), and center. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. - Arm I: Patients receive bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1 and 15 and paclitaxel IV on days 1, 8, and 15. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. - Arm II: Patients receive bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1 and 15, oral cyclophosphamide once daily on days 1-28, and oral capecitabine 3 times a day on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients complete quality-of-life questionnaire (BL-QA) and health economics questionnaires (BL-HEA and EQ-5D) at baseline, during, and after completion of study therapy. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 1 month, every 3 months for 1 year, and then every 6 months for 1 year.

Dinner was good, service was a little disappointing and the concerns over the safety have me a little worried. I might be back, but I will give it some time so maybe they will make the necessary repairs.

Black Peter is a Dutch elf-like figure that appears weeks before Christmas in The Netherlands. He serves as a sidekick for his leader, Sinterklass. He sings and dances and plays with the children when he appears. But despite his playfulness, Black Peter is usually a white man in black face, appearing to be half-witted; a vision that blacks and immigrants in Amsterdam are totally against. Stories vary on where Black Peter came from, but some say he was a thankful freed slave.
Black Peter arrives on a boat from Madrid, Spain bearing candy for the children. It is Black Peter's job to work as a page for SinterKlaas, listening at the chimneys for the good and bad children. He carries a rod and a sack to take the bad children away. Black Peter is black-faced, dressed in colorful Renaissance attire with a feather in his cap, gold jewelry and red lips.
The idea of Black Peter was said to have come from several sources. First was the mythical God named Wodan. Wodan flew through the air on his white horse, accompanied by two black ravens, Huginn and Munnin. The Ravens would report back to Wodan on the behavior of the mortals, like Black Peter would for SinterKlaas. The other idea was that Black Peter was a devil slave of SinterKlaas, forced to work for him. Some say that Black Peter was a slave freed by SinterKlaas, who works for him in gratitude. Others say he was black from chimney soot.
Also in more recent years, protests became more of an urgency when some of the Dutch began wearing afro wigs, gold jewelry and red lipstick to represent Black Peter. Tourists and others have found the character offensive. Attempts were made to give Black Peter a multicolored face, but resistance brought black face back into the celebration. Last year, controversy over Black Peter caused the huge celebration in Western Canada to be cancelled for the first time in 26 years.
At a recent parade in Amsterdam, protestors held signs that said "Free Pete." One of the protestors, Quinsy Gario, had been arrested in years past, after wearing a shirt that said "Black Peter is Racist." Both sides of the argument have protested, even on Facebook. Those against Black Peter argue that only the Netherlands has supported this type of racism. Anywhere else in the world, Black Peter would not be allowed.
There has been little government movement as a result of the protests, although the Mayor of Amsterdam wrote to the city council and said "[Black Peter] can potentially result in manifestations of racism — for example if black-skinned people are called Black Peter in everyday life…..the first matter of importance is gradualness."
