Edgar Cairo (1948-2000) was a Surinamese-Dutch poet, author, painter and performer. In 2011, Cindy Kerseborn directed the documentary « Ik ga dood om jullie hoofd » about his life. It highlights Cairo’s role as a pionneer in the thinking about a black identity and a black consciousness in the context of the Dutch colonial history and postcolonial present. #blackeuropeanhistorymonth #afropeanhistorymonth #edgarcairo https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt-hyyRHqTT/?igshid=k5dk14s58job

#johnypitts @afropean, Notes from Black Europe • 2019 • (image: Paris metro by Johny Pitts) • • via @guardian: « The term “Afropean”, Johny Pitts writes at the beginning of this beguiling book, “encouraged me to think of myself as whole and unhyphenated ... Here was a space where blackness was taking part in shaping European identity at large. It suggested the possibility of living in and with more than one idea: Africa and Europe, or, by extension, the Global South and the West, without being mixed-this, half-that or black-other. That being black in Europe didn’t necessarily mean being an immigrant.” » #johnypitts #afropean #afropea #blackeurope https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz29WmwIhf_/?igshid=1e1c7zpn9p05a
