“I’m not here until July 1, we are always here,” the slogan of the slogan of a campaign warns that we will be able to celebrate the slavery of the official world in an official birthday party. Organized by the Netherlands Wordt Beter, radio Zender FunX en The Black Archives gave a great deal of attention to the petition that the previous year should be provided in the Tweed Chamber.
Op 1 juli – ook bekend als Keti Koti – is de herdenking en viering van de afschaffing van de slavernij ў 1863. In the campaign, menden opgeroepen deze dag zelf vrij te nemen als signal naar de overheid en werkgevers.
“In the day of the slavery of slaverniy, he is always out of his mind, verdient to an official recognition,” he said. “Devolgen van he colonile verleden werken namelijk nog altijd door in de huidige samenleving, denk aan institutioneel racisme”.
Last year there were 62,000 petitions. Volgens Jerry Afriyie van Stichting Nederland Wordt Beter is Nederland weliswaar een land van traditions, maar verandert de wereld waarin we leven continue. “It simply came to our notice then that the colonies were working hard and that the colony was being rebuilt and that there was an impact that would be much more important than that, but we would not be able to logically date from 1 July to 1 July. ”
The campaign is open to Steun van Tony’s Chocolonely and cosmetics company LUSH, die evenals FunX, hun werknemers op 1 juli al vrij geven om de afschaffing van de slavernij te herdenken en te vieren.
