While keeping up my listening to Papiamentu news broadcasts on the internet, I came across this short video from 2010 that concerned a New York Times article on the creole language of Curaçao, Aruba and Bonaire. After the 2 minute mark, there is a short visual shot of my book on Papiamentu, The Story of Papiamentu-a Study in Slavery and Language, University Press of America, 2002)

Shameless plug, perhaps, but as a creole language, none has a history more interesting than Papiamentu.
