ASC Seminar: Why hundreds of Dutch emigrants choose Rhodesia-Zimbabwe as their new home

A journalistic journey through history and through the current Zimbabwe. Why did so many people emigrate from the Netherlands in the fifties? Why did hundreds of them choose to settle in what was then called Rhodesia, today’s Zimbabwe? And why did so many of them stay after 1965, when the country was led by a white-minority regime, faced an international boycott and was engulfed in a bloody guerrilla war? Journalist Marnix de Bruyne will address these questions in the seminar loosely connected to his book ‘We moeten gaan. Nederlandse boeren in Zimbabwe’. Please register
