Victory, but also fear of moving to the right: this is how Zuwena, Ronald and Hélène celebrate Keti Koti

Victory but also fear of moving to the right this

“I will definitely be paying attention to Keti Koti this coming weekend. In my own village, Bunschoten-Spakenburg, I have arranged for the carillon to play Surinamese songs on Saturday, but there will also be a tasting of Surinamese delicacies, live music and an exhibition of a book about Surinamese Maroon stories. Because we must also try to get the positive out of it. The good thing about the colonial past is that it brought a world cuisine. All cultures together, also in my village!
