Maartje Duin & Peggy Bouva found a unique connection, and turned it into something beautiful and important. The two created \u201cThe Plantation of Our Ancestors\u201d (\u201cDe plantage van onze voorouders,\u201d by VPRO - Dutch Public Radio) \u2014 an 8-part podcast series that uncovers and unpacks Holland\u2019s history of slavery - from a very personal perspective. Maartje is a podcast producer of Dutch noble descent, whose family were part-owners of plantations in Suriname, where Peggy\u2019s ancestors were slaves. But this is NOT a story of white guilt or black anger - it is one of understanding uncomfortable truths, and facing the future by remembering our past - together. The show has received international acclaim (soon to be translated to English), and more importantly, a powerful conversation representative you should hear - and be having.\nLEARN MORE\n\nPODCAST TRAILER (in English): https://youtu.be/YR9eLpIQu8Q\n\n\nNPR STORY: https://www.npr.org/2020/09/06/906815515/a-journey-that-we-have-to-join-together-2-dutch-women-confront-slaverys-legacy\n\nPODCAST SITE (in Dutch): https://www.vpro.nl/programmas/de-plantage-van-onze-voorouders/luister/afleveringen.html\n\n\n \n\nMENTIONS\n\nFILM (Peggy): Hidden Figures (2016): imdb.com/title/tt4846340\n\n\nBOOK (Martje): Girl Woman Other (2019, Bernardine Evaristo): goodreads.com/book/show/41081373-girl-woman-other\n\n\nPERSON (Maartje): Ira Glass\n\nPERSON (Peggy): Kamala Harris\n\n\nLearn more about your ad choices.
