SUMMARY:Maroons Day
DESCRIPTION:Suriname’s Maroons Day is celebrated on October 10 as a public holiday. This festival honors the Maroon people’s heritage and contributions to Suriname. This day is largely commemorated in the interior villages as well as in Paramaribo, in locations like the Palmentuin, by descendants of the Maroons — the ‘Loweman’ — who dress up in colorful ‘pangi’ to celebrate independence with everyone else in Suriname. Maroons Day frequently conveyed the message of ‘strength through togetherness.’ This topic was chosen by the organizing committee’s new goal (the Foundation ‘October 10, 1760’). The foundation’s goal is to foster cooperation among Suriname’s six Maroon countries.\n
