Keti Koti
.
Surinaams [Sranan Tongo] for 'broken chain'. To celebrate and honor this day, the first of July, we want to share a story.
.
The Creoles and Marrons of Suriname are both direct descendants from kidnapped [west-] Africans forced to labor on the infamous plantations of Surinam. The two distinct cultures have shared much together. Yet the Marrons have known freedom before the Dutch abolition of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade in 1863 [1873].
.
The name ‘Marron’ is commonly thought to be derived from the Spanish word ‘cimarrón’, roughly meaning wild animals [or escaped cattle]. Truly a false definition. Redefined by the Marrons when the highly acclaimed warriors of the settled communities successfully waged multiple wars on the Dutch colonialist and their slave trade. The wars continued to the point that the Dutch officials had to concede land and jurisdiction [in Surinam] to the Marrons in exchange for a chance at peace, or risk further damaging their lucrative ‘business’.
.
The peace agreements [of 1760] stated that from there on, the Marrons had to return any fugitive slave. An agreement the Marrons accepted in exchange for freedom, jurisdiction and stability.
.
The Marron communities are often seen as the best-kept piece of Africa 'outside of Africa'. Certain Marron tribes even sharing a dialect found in Ghana [West-Africa].
.
The history of the Creoles is more commonly known and presented as the collective Afro-Surinamese history. Our alleged freedom from the Trans-Atlantic slave trade was achieved in #1873. Commonly believed to be 1863, which is false. The enslaved Africans were expected to work for 10 more years on the plantations, to compensate the Dutch slave traders... for ending the slave trade.
.
The name ‘Creole’ roughly translates to someone of mixed European and African descent. But more accurately; a mixture [mengelmoes] of all kinds of lineages [Afro, European, Asian, Native American], often too hard to effectively trace back.
.
History serves a strong purpose.
And it is not only there for remembrance.
