Catching up with this week’s Who Do You Think You Are and there’s a powerful section about an ancestor heavily involved in the slave trade in the Dutch West Indies. Also a nuanced discussion about the multitude of emotions this leads to, and the importance of acknowledging it. I’m also struck it’s the same number of generations back in time that I have a slave owning ancestor, a man in , my 6xg-uncle.

The “Morspoort” is a gate that played a significant role in the history of Leiden, particularly during “Leidens Ontzet” or Leiden's Relief. On October 3rd, 1574, during the 80 Years War, Dutch rebels led by William of Orange liberated Leiden from the Spanish siege. Every year, the Morspoort serves as one of the starting points of the traditional 3 Oktober festival.

Historian Mark Ponte is sharing a lot of his research over on LinkedIn. I wish he was here on Mastodon - I'd be boosting EVERY SINGLE POST!

Here is this morning's story of Francisca, a free black woman in Amsterdam in 1632.

Worth your time to click through and read, I promise.

Unique discovery: 17th century through a woman’s eyes

How exciting! via @UvAHumanities

"As a result of the discovery, Van Nesse has instantly become one of the best documented people of her time. UvA art historian Judith Noorman and Robbert Jan van der Maal researched her life and wrote a book about it: Het unieke memorieboek van Maria van Nesse (1588-1650)."
