      They escaped slavery, that's why. Not all of us were able to escape, thus losing a lot of our culture

      Suriname is not like every other country i should really go there and see it for yourself its really interesting and the food is very nice i should take a look in de palmentuin palm tree garden in English and
      Blacka watra/cola kreek how we like to call it is nice to swim in the water is the same color as cola and i should just taste as many things as possible like bloedworst vleesworst roti bami nasi and pinda soup like the one in this video and note that its important to take care of your own safety because its not always safe deu to wild animals or unsafe infrastructure

      Nope. They’re maintaining their Ghanaian roots where they came from. Not the forced enslaved Dutch. Effects of colonialism is not cool.

    Guys, i'm doing research on Suriname for a project and I need to know, do Maroon peoples use electricity often? Do they watch TV or listen to the radio. I see they've adopted a lot of other western stuff, like blue jeans and industrial cooking equipment so i'm wondering.
