A colonial interrogation preserves Boni’s words

← Bula bèk na Dashboard
📅 25 April 1776 📍 Sürnam

A record of an interrogation contains a statement attributed to Boni. The source was created by colonial officials after a person connected to Boni’s community was captured. It offers evidence of Maroon political life, but must be read critically because the words were filtered through coercive interrogation and an archive built by the colonial state.
