After the book ‘Kinderen van zwarte bevrijders – een verzwegen geschiedenis’ [The children of Black liberators – an untold history] (Mieke Kirkels, Vantilt 2017) had been published, the idea arose to produce a digital reading and textbook: www.blackliberators.nl.
Not long after that the Black Liberators project in the Nederlands followed. The digital design company 51North produced the digital book including Digischool, an educational part of the website in both Dutch and English. Most of the stories in the digital book are based on the books written by Mieke Kirkels plus new stories and historical facts based on research by co-author Sebastiaan Vonk.
