The 1969 Curaçao uprising (Papiamento: Trinta di Mei, 'Thirtieth of May') was a series of riots on the Caribbean island of Curaçao, then part of the Netherlands Antilles, a semi-independent country in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The uprising took place mainly on 30 May but continued into the night of 31 May – 1 June 1969.

On the evening of 29 May, the unions met at the Casa Sindical in Pietermaai to decide whether a general strike would be declared. On that night the first signs of unrest were already visible when some passing cars were stormed. The next day, 30 May, a solidarity strike was announced.

In 1994 werd Trinta di Mei tot nationale herdenkingsdag verklaard.

2009年4月20日 · The events sparking the May 30, 1969 uprising known in Papiamento as the “trinta di mei,” in Willemstad, the capital of Curaçao, Netherlands Antilles, resulted from a labor dispute between workers and management couched within a racialized class hierarchy, with remnants that persist today.
