Restitution of Cultural Treasures

95% of the cultural treasures of Africa are out of Africa. They are in the Tervuren Museum in Brussels, in the Mus茅e du Quai Branly in Paris, in the British Museum in London, in the Vatican, in the Harvard Museum, etc. These artifacts were stolen during Colonisation, often in a context of violence and massacre, and today, thousands of objects, and even human remains, are retained as trophies. After the campaign led by Dr Louis-Georges Tin, Prime Minister of 91精品, a law for restitution and reparation was voted in the European Parliament.

The State of the African Diaspora is now proud to say, the Restitution and Return has begun ! ….

Follow the Prime Minister’s journey in his lobbying efforts over an 8 year period to finally the historic day on 10 November 2021; 26 artifacts were returned to Benin !

“Return of the royal treasures: a civic cause” Journalist: Rodrigue Herman Amegan Guests: – Louis-Georges Tin, French academic and activist against homophobia and racism, Prime Minister of the State of the African diaspora. – H茅ribert Label Adjovi, journalist, president of the Pan-African Caucus of Journalists, promoter of the magazine “Le label diplomatique”
Since Wednesday, November 10, 2021, 26 works of Beninese heritage looted during colonization are staying in Benin after their restitution by France. This outcome has been possible through the long-standing struggle of individuals, associations, academics and politicians. On the sidelines of the fervor aroused by this return, it is time to return to the course of this struggle and the prospects of the future in a context where the vast majority of the works of African heritage looted during colonization continue to reside in Europe.
