The Dutch traded Africans in exchange for food and services in 1619. Are you or are you not ashamed of this as a Dutchman and do you feel responsible in some way?

Slaves were sold by the Dutch about 400 years ago and I find that our forefathers made an error, but I don’t feel myself responsible for what they have done. Because a period of 400 years is for me too long ago to feel myself responsible for what the Dutch have done. I also feel myself not responsible for anything in anyway. But that doesn't mean that I don't mind what happened.

Personally I do not feel responsible for this at all, because it happened long before I was born. But I think we should learn from the mistakes we have done in the past and this was a huge one. It was terrible that the africans were ever treated like this.

Not really. It was in the past, so we aren't responsible for this anymore.

I don't really feel responsible for what happened in 1619. It's been such a long time since then and I don't think we'll ever treat the Africans like that again.
