A debate on the commemoration of slavery in Rotterdam

This year we commemorate the abolition of slavery in Suriname and the Netherlands Antilles. In our capital, there are plenty events to commemorate. But in Rotterdam, it remains remarkably quit.

Join us, this Saturday from 14.00 to 15.30, in the central library of Rotterdam and give your opinion!
