Keti Koti: "They don't realise how bad the history of slavery is"

On 1 July, during Keti Koti, we commemorate the abolition of slavery, 162 years ago this year. Reason enough to talk to teacher Marlot Akkermans and Minerva student Ariana Valeriano about our history of slavery, about their efforts to make their education more diverse and inclusive, and about trying to stay afloat as a black woman in a white society.
