Talking CalabashesDuckunoo, which means “sweet thing” in Jamaican Patois, is served as a dessert or snack, usually at cultural events, such as those happening during the current Emancipendence celebrations. The sweet treat originated in Ghana by the Asante people. Enslaved Africans brought it to the Caribbean.
The dessert is also known as Blue Draws (“draws” is Jamaican Patois for “drawers”), and the string around it refers to an era when cord was used to keep underwear secure.

Jeffrey Ince 🏴Today is Emancipation Day, and that should be celebrated. But we still have a long way to go in order to rid ourselves of slavery. So yes let’s celebrate, but let us keep on fighting too for a better world of freedom, racial equality, and justice for all.

hoezo 1873
Als een van de laatste Europese landen schafte Nederland in 1863 de slavernij alsnog officieel af. Het staatstoezicht’ dat daarop volgde duurde tot 1873 en gold voor vrijwel alle tot slaaf gemaakten. Hoewel op papier ze vrij waren moest er nog 10 jaar gedwongen onbetaald op de plantages doorgewerkt worden. De tien jaar regel gold overigens alleen voor Suriname.
