Museum De Lakenhal

Strijden ga ik – Anton de Kom en de Surinaamse Studenten Unie

Until 7 July from 10:00 to 17:00

Exhibition

Vandaag de dag is de Surinaamse vrijheidsstrijder Anton de Kom niet meer weg te denken uit de geschiedenis. Zijn geruchtmakende boek Wij slaven van Suriname uit 1934 raakte in de loop der tijd in vergetelheid.

Ontdekking en omarming

In de jaren zestig ontdekte de Surinaamse Studenten Unie in de Leidse universiteitsbibliotheek De Koms manifest voor vrijheid en gerechtigheid voor alle Surinamers. De Surinaamse Studenten Unie zou dit werk omarmen en breed toegankelijk maken.

Over de tentoonstelling

Van 10 november 2023 tot en met 7 juli 2024 vertelt de Surinaamse Studenten Unie in Museum De Lakenhal dit voor velen nog onbekende verhaal. In de tentoonstelling zijn historische objecten en een documentaire van filmmaker Emma Lesuis te zien, waarin oud-leden van de Surinaamse Studenten Unie aan het woord komen. Kunstenaar Hedy Tjin maakt speciaal voor deze tentoonstelling kleurrijke wandschilderingen van prominente figuren uit deze geschiedenis.
