a child is taking us one or 2 to see symbols of dutch colonial history in the city . gable stone shows a man named cornelius throng. he was an admiral, as the dutch fleets. and what's more significant is this black serv, and that's actually in the gable stone. he is holding the helmet of drum. we know he was a real person, even though we don't know his name. this is an a replica of an 18 century cargo ship. this was a cargo ship of goods, but the same type of ship could be converted to caring people as the cargo $700.00 people could be transporting the ship, the son of a century, such merchants both and shipped about 600000 in slave people from africa during the transatlantic slave trade, they would take them to caribbean colonies like serena, hans christian post one. i'm still has traced his family tree back to his slave own us in the colony. it's definitely likely periods. and when you read the letters and

the history of your family, the central figure will say, experts on hampton he own to 2 presentations. and together he had, i think, about $250.00 slaves that was in the 19th century. but the story is part of an era that began in the 17th century when the netherlands was a global power and likely the richest country in the world. at the time. the dutch have historically referred to this period as the golden age. now the use of this term is being debated because its description doesn't address the violence and brutality and slave people in did indulge colonies. there are different sort, it's not golden age. we are looking back to and is this in the periods. we said the best of times in the verse of the times, best with 5 for a few people and the verse of times for many people. adding this context to dutch

history is also the objective of a new permanent dick submission in the troubling museum in amsterdam, fix reasoning, it's called our colonial inheritance. we think that you cannot really understand during the day society, if you don't understand colonialism and how those structures worked. we believe that colonialism shaped the world that we live in today. and that's truthful people here. many of the residents in this looking cost borrow of amsterdam have roots in full in the colonies. generations later, in a policy still shapes their lives. we helped me things here and answer them se specifically talking about uh, what do we need when we talk about moving forward? and even if we receive a policy from the king, what does it mean? what people told us that the policy from the king will be your 1st step and what people really need is their children to have a professional education. there's children to get

a job that you have one of the last few opin nations to abolish slavery. and the king's apology comes later than that of other former colonial powers. the question is, what comes next? it's all correspondence, this the actual isn't it is an amsterdam where she followed the king's speech. a new c a as a king we understand has made an apology. as expected, what do you make of what he said? yes, it was an emotional speech. terrific. a strong apology. he was saying, uh today i stand here as the king, as a member of this government. and i personally apologize to understand this and put this a bit into context, your thoughts and see for it is also a bit of family history for the king because his family was in the form of kings. they haven't burned out of the slavery. and um they have are,

and what would be nowadays nearly 550000000 years 7. he says he also feels personally affected by this then i think you can also understand it was that back in mind, but he was also saying to you, this apology was met is right across from people here in the audience. but also people that came to watch the speech, people that i talked to earlier, and they said a lot of them told me that their ancestors are formally unsafe people. in fact, they came through. he has a king making that apology and that this matters for them. and what prompted this apology? now why is the netherlands confronting it's colonial past now? yeah, the, the netherlands have been starting to also look at more into the history over the last couple of years. people have been telling me here. i think that the black life matters movement. it has been all to planning a pod, like in all over europe, and then a couple of like, as people have told me a couple of years ago,

54 or 5 years ago, they said it started the people to learn more about it. i'm also more in school, but they also still saying that a lot more should be done. and people who seemed very willing to look more into their pos as and um and, and just be aware and help people also to have a healing process. starting right. i mean, we heard that the macro to apologize. now the king apologized. how did the judge feel about the way that the official was handling the issue and what do they expect from them? the people here said that there should be more and that's of course the question that is lingering the question about reparations for that some people say, well, there must be reparations, also for healing process to start. but i also talked to him in here on the street, and you said, well, you know, mr. reparations business, very difficult because who would actually get the money?

so this is already the apology is clearly only the beginning of the handling of the past years in the netherlands. right? dw correspondence, lucy officials, they're reporting for us from saddam. let's see. yes, thank you so much. and here are some of the headlines from around the world. at least 48 people have been killed and a road accident in western kenya. police in the town of long viani said a truck carrying a shipping container via to off the road and plowed into several vehicles. another set of people was seriously injured in the trash and have been taken to hospital south west. a pound has been pounded by heavy rain and some rivers and thus the banks and homes have been inundated. officials have wont of possible land slides. one person has died and the deluge and another is accounted for. a bus crashed and burst into flames,

germany's longest suspension bridge is opening to the public and it is not for the faint of heart the narrow structure of his visit to spectacular views over this island region. and locals comp wait for the chance to buy a ticket to cross sort of of varied things like whether it's overwhelming, i would say what is being built here and also that it's possible to build such a bridge and such a valley from this problem was crazy. what's possible about i'd be tempted to cross it some time and i was just trying to think it's quite impressive because it's really very high. i think it'll be a bit careful at 1st, but then you'll be fine after the 1st few meters made on the bridge cost full point, 5000000 euros to build can carry up to 750 people at one time and is made out of a $170.00 tons of steel. it's construction is the result of across the

board a collaboration. and so what you're looking here at is suisse engineering and the drum and scrutiny. the back and forth with 3 d modeling and authorities and inspectors took 6 years. but now we, we are really at the end of a long journey on the one hand and then the other hand, now we are expecting a lot of tourists to experience here. here the scripts, a long time in the making. and foot bridge enthusiasts. the suspense is finally over. not for me. i think he has a reminder of the top story. at this hour, franz deployed $45000.00 police to contain the unrest that has spread across the country. a full size of riots, so hundreds of people arrested and continued protests against the police shooting of a teenager earlier this that's all from us for now. coming
