Activities
Aside from events you can attend, we list activities you can participate online. We encourage you to watch Karen Jenkin's interview on Suriname TV, "Dr Sophie Redmond's legacy must never be forgotten," and Michael Tuck's "The Atlantic Slave Trade and the Cycle of Resistance along the Gambia River," both under History.
