The National Assembly unanimously designated 10 May as Día Nacional de la Afrovenezolanidad. The resolution called for public commemoration of José Leonardo Chirino’s 1795 uprising and urged education authorities to include Indigenous and Afro-descendant roots and local history in curricula. This institutional recognition creates a public memory space for Afro-Venezuelan history. It also raises a decolonial question: commemoration can widen historical visibility, but cannot by itself repair the continuing effects of enslavement or guarantee Afro-descendant control over how that history is told.
