Free Heri Heri For All is an initiative of KIP Republic to commemorate and
celebrate July 1, 1863, the day of the abolition of the slavery past in a contemporary and unifying way.
This day is also known as Keti Koti, Dia Di Lucha Pa Libertat and Emancipation Day.
Heri Heri is a one-pan dish consisting of ground fruit cassava, sweet potato, green and yellow bananas, fried salty fish (cod) and an egg. Today, Heri Heri is a dish that culturally connects people with ancestors and thus with history. In the afro diaspora, it is also a favorite and a dish that is often made during various celebrations.
On Friday 1 July, together with Kunstinstituut Melly and Theater Rotterdam, we’re handing out free heri heri meals.
Come pick up your heri heri in hiphophuis house between 14.00 – 16.00 and
enjoy beautiful people and good tunes by DJ Don de Baron on the terrace of neighbor Annabel.
