How come I am only hearing about this now! It seems like Most of us grew up with lies on top of lies. What need do you have to keep these so called artefacts? It has no meaning to you? You don even understand the significance of it, but you keep it anyway, perhaps you think you will gain something from it? Maybe tomorrow, in year or perhaps 100 years? I pity that state of mind. Great article.

I watched Dahomey by Mati Diop last month about the return of 26 Dahomey artifacts the French stole from what is now Benin. It was interesting to hear the conversations and perspectives of the art historians, community members, and university students who were there to receive and meet them.
