This week’s Facts of the Week centre on our missing artefacts – missing, that is, from Africa. We know where many of them are: in European museums, still.
And yet, despite ex-colonisers having acquired them through plunder, they still cling on to them, coming up with all sorts of sophistical reasons not to give back what is ours. Not just ours, but of profound significance to our culture, history and identity. As ever, please share your thoughts on this topic, which looks like it will be an issue for some time yet.
