Mapping Slavery’s Nancy Jouwe took history professor Maarten van Rossem on the ‘Sporen van Slavernij’ tour through Utrecht, highlighting slavery heritage. RTV Utrecht produced a video of their educational walk in Dutch, as part of their show “van Rossem Vertelt“.

Together they walk past important slavery heritage in Utrecht, like Eduard van Akaboa’s former street, slave trader George Beens’ ‘Klein Blankburgh’, and abolitionist Nicolaas Beets’ house.
