Jossy Albertus and Marjoleine Boonstra have recreated these Amsterdam locations, inspired by a small-scale archive study, performed by the Amsterdam City Archives. Albertus takes portraits of black residents of Amsterdam, on the locations that played a big role in the lives of their ancestors. Boonstra shows us buildings that symbolise the former powers-that-be under whose regime the slave trade was coordinated from Amsterdam. Henry G. Dors sketches the historical context and guides us through the meaning of these tracks for today’s multi-ethnic society.
