Narrated by Ronnie Archer-Morgan, this audiobook explores the largely unknown history of African nations' efforts to recover art stolen during colonial times and held in Western museums. Based on extensive research and unpublished sources, Bénédicte Savoy highlights the long-standing and complex struggle for restitution, from post-independence movements to key events like UN debates and legal battles. This compelling history underscores the importance of cultural repatriation for Africa's future relationships with the West.
