Abstract

The Surinamese activist and writer Anton de Kom has made a significant contribution to anticolonial thought on the Dutch empire. Silenced by the colonial regime, and with his publications banned in the Netherlands during the Second World War, De Kom’s spirit of rebellion remains important for achieving an emancipated world and a prosperous Suriname today.
