Title: Loot Author: Barnaby Phillips Narrator: Michael Page Format: mp3 Length: 12 hrs and 3 mins Release date: 06-08-21 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 15 ratings Genres: Africa Publisher's Summary: This is the story of the "Benin Bronzes", their creation, theft, and what should happen to them now. When first exhibited in London, they caused a sensation and helped reshape European attitudes towards Africa, challenging the prevailing view of the continent as "backward" and without culture. But seeing them in the British Museum today is, in the words of one Benin City artist, like "visiting relatives behind bars". In a time of fevered debate about the legacies of empire, loot, museums, and history, what does the future hold for the Bronzes themselves?
