l'abolition de l'esclavage

Ce jour fut reconnu par l’état français comme jour férié et chômé 135 ans après c'est-à-dire le 23 novembre 1983.

Célébrer l’abolition de l’esclavage, c’est :
-         d’une part, ce rappeler du combat contre le colonialisme français.
-         d’autre part de porter un hommage à ces milliers d’africains déportés pour être esclave dans les colonies françaises dont la Martinique.
Ils ont été Humiliés, roués de coups, vendu et acheté comme du bétail, torturer pour faire tourner les usines, couper la canne… et servir les colons.  
 
Le 22 mai aujourd’hui, doit nous rappeler notre solidarité afin de combattre les injustices et inégalités.

On May 22nd its a memorable day for us Inhabitant of Martinique because it is the day of the holiday of the abolition of the slavery. 
Victor Schoelcher is the author of the decree of abolition of April 27th, 1848.
But in Martinique, the official date of the abolition remains fixed on May 22nd 1848, because before the arrival of the official decree on the island, the slaves rebel themselves and require their immediate liberation and the general Rostoland, governor of the island was forced to proclaim the abolition the same day. Thus holiday and unemployed date
This day was recognized by the state French as holiday and unemployed 135 years later

To celebrate the abolition of the slavery, it is:
- On one hand, remind us the fight against the French colonialism.
- On the other hand to carry an honouring in these thousands of African deported to be slave in French colonies as was Martinique.
They were humbled, beaten up, sold and bought as cattle, tortured to make factories turn, to cut the sugar cane and to serve the colonists.
May 22nd today, has to remind us our solidarity to fight against the injustices and the disparities.
