In the Netherlands, a small group of biracial citizens has entered
its eighth decade of lives that have been often puzzling and
difficult, but which offer a unique insight into the history of
race relations in America. Though their African American fathers
had brought liberation from Nazi tyranny at the end of World War
II, they were in a segregated American military derived from a
racially divided American society. Decades later, some of their
children could finally know of a father's identity and the life he
had led after the war. Just one would be able to find an embrace in
his arms, and just one would arrive at her father's American grave
after 73 years. But they could now understand their own Dutch lives
in the context of their fathers' lives in America.
