In Guyana's Square of the Revolution, a statue honors Cuffy, an Akan man from West Africa who became a legendary figure. Captured and enslaved by the Dutch in the colony of Berbice (present-day Guyana), Cuffy rose from house slave to revolutionary leader. But an act of civility would be the beginning of his downfall.

On February 27 1763, thousands of enslaved people in the Dutch colony of Berbice—in present-day Guyana—launched a huge uprising against their oppressors. Surrounded by jungle and savannah, the revolutionaries—many of them African-born—effectively controlled the colony for a year as they resisted European attempts to overthrow them. In the end, the Dutch prevailed because of one unique advantage—their ability to call upon soldiers and supplies from neighbouring colonies as well as from Europe. This little-known revolution was the biggest in South America's long and dark period of enslavement, one that almost changed the face of the Americas. Yet the efforts of the mutineers have largely been overlooked—until now. To shine a light on the uprising that came so close to success, Dan is joined by Marjoleine Kars who is professor of history at the University of Maryland in the US. Marjoleine is the author of Blood on the River: A Chronicle of Mutiny and Freedom on the Wild Coast, which helped uncover the workings of this little-known yet crucial rebellion. The book has won multiple awards, including the Cundhill History Prize, and has been described as an astonishing work of original history. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In 1763 kwamen duizenden tot slaaf gemaakten in de Nederlandse kolonie Berbice in opstand. Een vol jaar hielden ze stand, totdat ze werden neergeslagen. Marjoleine Kars, historica aan de University of Maryland, stuitte pardoes op ruim 900 transcripties met verhoren van de opnieuw tot slaaf gemaakte Afrikanen die de strijd overleefden. Met deze transcripties krijgt ze een uniek inkijkje in deze onbekende revolutie. Over deze onbekende opstand schreef ze het boek Bloed in de rivier. Marjoleine Kars is te gast.
