To Truly Take
Ownership of Its Heritage, Africa Needs a New Museum to House its Returned Cultural Artifacts
"The return of these
artifacts will represent an opportunity for the young people of Africa to
discover and connect with their history and their identity. On a continent
where more than 60 percent of the population is under the age of 25, this is
vitally important. These young people—the future of the continent—have been
starved of access to the deepest elements of their culture.But for it to happen, the returning art must be displayed and promoted
in the right way: In a museum that reflects and celebrates African cultural
history as much as its individual pieces of art do."
