Why One Person Sees Discrimination and Another Doesn’t

Thursday 26 March 2026, 8 pm - 9:30 pm
Lecture and conversation in Dutch | Radboud Reflects and Municipality of Nijmegen

Venue: Lecture Hall Complex, Radboud University
This programme is in Dutch. 

“Where are you really from?” For one person, it’s a sincere question; for another, it’s a discriminatory one. Why does one person interpret a remark as a factual statement, while someone else sees it as a clear form of discrimination? The Constitution seems straightforward: equal cases deserve equal treatment. But in practice, things are far more complex. Come listen to sociologist Niels Spierings, philosopher Hasan Erkan and alderman Cilia Daemen as they explore the reasons behind these differing perceptions—and whether understanding them can help reduce discrimination.
