Comments

Cuffyor Kofi (zm. w 1763 r.) był Akanczykiem, który został schwytany w swojej rodzinnej Afryce Zachodniej do niewolniczej pracy na plantacjach holenderskiej kolonii Berbice w dzisiejszej Gujanie. Stał się sławny, ponieważ poprowadził bunt ponad 2500 niewolników przeciwko reżimowi kolonialnemu i jest obecnie znany jako Bunt Berbice (23 lutego 1763 r.). Dziś jest bohaterem narodowym Gujany.

Cuffyor Kofi (died in 1763) was an Akan man who was captured in his native West Africa for slavery to work in the plantations of the Dutch colony of Berbice in present-day Guyana. He became famous because he led a revolt of more than 2,500 slaves against the colonial regime & is now known as the Berbice Revolt (23 February 1763). Today, he is a national hero in Guyana.
