Hompie Smeergraag wants everyone to taste his cheese (Eru Smeerkaas = Eru spreadable cheese). He ends up at the "Eskimos" or rather Inuit people. They usually hunt for food, but Hompie brings plenty of spreadable cheese for them to try.

Relation
Facing Blackness is a multimedia exhibition that takes the public through the obscure history of portraying Black people from the colonial period to contemporary society. Using unique archive material and visual art, we show how anti-black racism became part of the Dutch 'cultural archive' and our everyday ideas, customs and utensils. On the other hand, the exhibition shows how there has always been 'everyday resistance' to various forms of racism and how Black people themselves have given and continue to give meaning to their culture and identity.
