Dutch Is really a mixture Between english/Saxon AND french ..quite interesting

Eindelijks een goede opname van Elske en Band pa super goed afgesteld video ook super mooi complementen aan Brinkman Video Producties!!!!!!!

I was the first maintenance man when it opend back some 20ish years ago. Loved working there

Thank you so much for this video, because I’m in ninth generation Canadian, I never think about ancestry, all my ancestors that I can remember came from here, it wasn’t until I went there in person that I stood there looking at all the displays of people who sacrificed everything, leaving everything they knew behind to come here for a completely uncertain future, that I just stood there like an idiot bawling my eyes out, overcome with emotion, and to this day, I have no idea why it affected me so deeply. Then, I came back here to my home in Toronto, went over to my parents house, who are now almost 90, and talked for hours as they opened up to me telling me of the stories they never told me about how my ancestors from Ireland fled starvation, and political persecution, leaving behind everything they knew loved to come here. Suddenly it was like a lightbulb went off in my head. My mother is from Nova Scotia, most of her family lives in Halifax or close to it, she had 12 brothers and sisters, each one of them have at least eight kids, the same goes for each generation before, in other words, I’m related to half the province! finally, I asked my mom why she never told me about it…. my mother is one very tough lady, I’ve never once seen her cry in my life, until then. She started sobbing, telling me of every single detail of what her family and ancestors went through trying to build a life here while trying to leave their entire lineage behind in Ireland. She was going to take it to the grave with her, without ever telling me or my sister, all because it was too painful for her to discuss. I did feel bad about making her cry, but I felt wonderful that we finally had that conversation, that she finally felt comfortable to open up to me, and tell me about my family history before it was too late. She later told me that she was so happy to finally be able to tell me about it without shame, because back then, the Irish were treated like garbage! It’s on par with what they did to the slaves from Africa, with no exaggeration, and with that carries a lot of shame to this very day, that’s why she didn’t want to tell me, she didn’t want me feeling bad about my ancestry, which is total nonsense. I told her I’m incredibly proud of who I am and where I come from, and nobody on this planet ever convince me otherwise, that’s what made her so happy. Thankfully I still have both my parents. My father‘s family is almost identical, but they came from the UK, London to be more specific, and ironically both my parents families came here on the same ship without even knowing it (moms family were dragged to London as workers, against their will, dads family wanted to escape poverty and disease, and both families used the same ship!). I found that out after doing a lot of digging and research. At first they didn’t believe me, until I finally showed them the documents that I had managed to get hold of and printed out. This was hundreds of years ago, the two families had nothing in common other than they were all immigrants, and generations later, families from the same ship ended up getting married and having a family, it’s so ironic it’s almost spooky! I was able to do A genetic analysis, because in my professional life, I work as a medical laboratory scientist, which was wonderful because it really helped me find more information than the average person could. I can trace back my lineage over 5 centuries. A lot of it by documentation and paperwork that has been scanned into the system, but also a lot of it just by genetic research and analysis. I spent months in the laboratory after hours, thankfully the labs director was kind enough to allow me to use the equipment to work on my own time when everyone else left for the day, so I could find the answers I was looking for. Unfortunately I wasn’t related to nobility, like I (and everyone else) always fantasized about, lol! But, it was absolutely incredible to find out everything that I did, everybody’s names, where they were born, where and how they died, how old they were, even minute details down to the colour of their hair and eyes. I found a picture and nearly drop dead from shock. I thought it was me, it was an identical clone, put side-by-side you could not tell the two apart. I was looking at my great great great great great great great grandfather (Plus or minus a generation or two). This was before cameras even existed, it was a drawing, a drawing of him before he left Ireland, and I swear to God I am the reincarnation of his physical body, we are absolutely identical, same eyecolor, hair colour, height, weight…..same everything! It was spooky but absolutely fascinating. And everything I just said was the result of going to Pier 21. So to anyone reading, if somewhere along the way your family immigrated here, you absolutely have to go there, you won’t believe what you can discover. I never in a million years could have imagined what I uncovered, and I am so thankful!

Dat meen je niet! Paul en ik zaten naast elkaar op de HAVO! Dat is pas 2 jaar later tot deze ontdekking moet komen ...

Hello Team Brinkmann. This is just phenomenal. Moving and beautiful all at once. I'm Bob Buckley, founder of The Dutch Way Of Life and I'd like to speak to you and getting your film seen by more of the people who need to see it. Do you have an email? Bob

Ongelooflijke goede Friese band. Jullie Friezen en dat zeg ik als niet Fries mogen er heel erg trots op zijn. Dat deze band nationaal en internationaal niet door is gebroken is niet te begrijpen.

die friezen zijn altijd zo goed geweest met hun wave muziek,weekend at wakiki eens live gezien in utrecht was een belevenis,loop je op je 60ste nog een band te ontdekken ,die je niet kent ,doet me denken aan eerste x ik joy division hoorde.kort om****kippenvel

I hope everyone in this film already dead n rott in hell

We hadden daar niets te zoeken! Schande!

Traditie en zeker top/teamsport. .....als je een baan hebt en doet dit ernaast is het topsport.....

Dat dit nooit op dvd verschenen is!!!

👍

Is deze documentaire ook op DVD te bestellen?

het grote zwijgen ? het grote zwijgen en wegkijken van de Nederlandse politiek(behalve PVV) dat Nederland getransformeerd wordt in Hollandistan. Dit is toch allemaal al verjaard.

Geweldig informatief voor een leek, alleen een tikje jammer dat het niet ondertiteld is.

Boiling Water, fijne Band is dit ! Mooie slepende timing is lekker. Een Harmonies pakkend feest !

Geweldige docu!!Plus een schitterende ode door Williams Seen Transport Music met Anne Soldaat,Jacco de Greeuw en Jelle Paulusma en anderen!!!

even herinneringen ophalen

Top!

Geweldige zang en muziek.

ik vind het jammer dat het alleen geopend is voor donateurs. kan dit niet betalen, dus kan ik deze te gekke dieren niet komen bekijken jammer!

Bedankt voor het verleden Theo en Paul, ik draai jullie nog steeds....

Oké dat is jammer. Nou mocht dit ooit gebeuren of op dvd uitkomen houd ik me aanbevolen.... Dank voor je reactie....
