http://offtrackplanet.com/inspiration/what-the-fuck-is-zwarte-piet/Zwarte Piet, directly translated from Dutch means “Black Peteâ€. Although his exact function and portrayal is highly and tensely debated, he accompanies Sinterklass (Dutch Santa, sort of. Their Santa is actually called Kertsman, or Christmas-man) during a Christmas-like tradition in the Netherlands and gives out gifts to kids. So why all the tension? Well, Black Pete is, how do we put this?…Black (at least visually). Every year, in early December, Sinterklass is rumored to roll in from Spain on a steamship (watch out P. Diddy) with his sidekick Black Pete, a white guy done up in black face paint, bright red lipstick, wearing gold bling and minstrel helper clothing.
One reason celebrators give for Black Pete’s existence is that Sinter is too old to deliver gifts so he got a side kick, Black Pete, to do it for him. Pete tends to go through the chimney to deliver these gifts, gets covered in soot and that’s why he’s black.
