Johny takes a Black Heritage tour along Amsterdam’s canal-lined landscape to understand how a Dutch national identity can champion progressive politics, yet remain unwilling to properly acknowledge four centuries of colonial expansion. Along the way, he speaks to Vincent de Kom, the great great grandson of Anton de Kom, anti-Nazi freedom fighter and one of the first to write about Dutch-imposed slavery in Suriname. We also hear from Akwasi, whose brand of hiphop melds Ghanaian and Dutch influence into a textured, sonic concoction.  Written and hosted by Johny Pitts, the producer and composer is Femi Oriogun-Williams. A Reduced Listening and Afropean co-production.
