- **Event Description**: What does healing from slavery's legacy look like? Dr. Joy DeGruy joins Amsterdam for an evening on trauma and healingAbout this EventWhat does healing from the legacy of slavery actually look like? In September 2026, clinical psychologist and researcher Dr. Joy DeGruy comes to Amsterdam, invited by Stichting Ankaa. In her influential work Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome, she describes how centuries of slavery and structural exclusion echo through generations, and above all, how communities find their way to healing and resilience.We're connecting her visit to Route naar Herstel (Route to Repair), the advisory report that examines how the history of slavery still plays out in Amsterdam and translates that into concrete action. The report was written by Zwart Manifest for the city of Amsterdam and has since been folded into the coalition agreement's ten point plan. Building on that experience, there is now growing interest in exploring what this approach could look like on a national level.Where Route naar Herstel calls for healing close to home, with recognition of intergenerational trauma and room for forms of care beyond the regular Western framework, DeGruy offers the language and grounding to take that next step. From understanding intergenerational trauma to pathways toward healing, that is what this evening is about. What comes out of it will feed directly into the development of a national Route to Repair.Natasja Slagtand will moderate the conversation. Dionne Abdoelhafiezkhan (IZI Solutions / Zwart Manifest) opens the evening with an introduction to Route naar Herstel, followed by DeGruy's keynote, a panel discussion and room for dialogue with the public.Date?
