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
