Quote:A Belgian city has cancelled its plans for a black female Santa Claus to hand out presents to children after critics labelled the event as 'woker than woke'.
Queen Nikkolah, an African alternative to the Belgian Santa Claus - Sinterklaas - was also set to be draped in the colours of a Palestinian flag.
The character, dreamt up by artist Laura Nsengiyumva who called for Belgium to be liberated from 'colonial ideology', was set to visit the town hall until the mayor of Ghent caved into pressure to cancel the event.
'There is nothing wrong with Sinterklaas, as we know him,' Mathias de Clercq said. 'We shouldn't try to turn him into something else.'
The character of Queen Nikkolah was created to provide children with revised versions of traditional Christmas tales about Sinterklaas.
'People see Queen Nikkolah as a threat,' said Ms Nsengiyumva, who created the character in 2017.
'But if I didn't like this tradition, I wouldn't have picked it up. It's also a desire to be part of it.'
She added: 'It came from a need from the community, not only people of colour, but I think also white allies who needed an alternative to deconstruct the colonial myth around Sinterklaas.
'I dream of a Belgium liberated from colonial ideology and a society without discrimination.'
Members of the right-wing New Flemish Alliance described the event as 'woker than woke'.
Nadia Sminate, a vice-chairman of the Flemish parliament, added: 'Queen Nikkolah's initiative is actually saying that entire generations of Flemish people are racists.'
More than 300 children were planning to attend the alternative Christmas event, where Queen Nikkolah was going to dress up in the colours of the Palestinian flag to raise awareness of the conflict in Gaza between Hamas and Israel.
Daily Woke
White people have to give "Queen Nikkolah" envelopes full of cash on Blackmas Eve; otherwise she sets their homes on fire. This is the new, EU-imposed holiday being voted on to replace Christmas.
The alternative to having Belgians in the Congo making policies (bad) is to have Africans in Belgium making policies (good)? I guess that's how social justice works. They don't want to end colonizing or discriminating. They just want to be the ones doing it.
Absolute endless amounts of this crapola 24/7, worldwide, from every country even those you can't find on a map. It's like the Hoover Dam has collapsed, except that ain't water, that's manure.
Only white Belgian children get Christmas presents this year. Santa says so.
