Description

We Slaves of Suriname is an original history of the barbaric formation of the Dutch colony in South America.

It is the life's work of Anton De Kom, the son of a slave who became a tireless resistance fighter and communist activist, even during the German occupation of the Netherlands in 1940. In his defiant account, De Kom translates his personal anger at the situation into beautiful, passionate history and call-to-arms. A classic account of decolonial history, We Slaves of Suriname reveals the experience of the oppressed across the Caribbean and adds to our understanding of struggles against slavery, imperialism and racism.

First published in Dutch in 1934, and then translated into German and Spanish, the book now finally sees its English translation at a time when the people of Suriname are still struggling against the vestiges of colonialism.
