I attack the idea that someone born and raised in, say, NL whose grandparents moved in from, say, Turkey, is considered a Turk, often both by themselves and other people. In my opinion, if someone is born and raised here, they’re Dutch, or something like “Turkish-Dutch” maybe, but instead everybody talks about them like they are an immigrant. To lock people inside their little immigrant identity groups, even when done out of some loving inclusive anti-racism vibe, has the adverse effect of what’s intended. It’s totally possible to be Dutch and Turkish and we should celebrate that, not fight it.
