actually have the chance to talk to a defendant of chief, still getting bundled, who was also executed during the much emoji visit. so john bundle was kind enough to join us for us really, bates. and of course, we wanted to know why the younger generation assume impacted by colonial history. the hello and welcome back to the submit to set up a set street debate. this week we are intends on you and this country. if you know a little bit about your history, what's kinda nice 1st by the germans before the british took over after world war one. but so many years later, the scourge of colonization is still felt in contemporary tanzania. today we want to find out how that had re is its head, and who better to answer this question for me. then turns on is we have you, it's like you who's an assistant professor of history. do you think that's times then? yeah, i mean the, the rest of africa is truly independent. it doesn't. yeah. if it is definitely because it is not to do an independent because that we've been little cornelius and ended, but now we have

a new car. now the zip where everything we do is somehow this is determined by the west. so before we moving to new york colonialism, which for sure will be touching on, i want to come to join bundle who is an ancestor of one of the freedom fighters. i would say of this country, your great grandfather was unfortunately murdered in a horrendous way. he was home and parts of his remains. what taken with the former colonial mast as so tell me a little bit about why searching for his remains is so important. we offer guns, we, we end morning, all right, and when we, we battery each and every part of the body for the password. yeah. um and this such as sticking you as far as bundling, where you've been able to speak to the state, minnesota, and most recently, when president funk photo each time i came, you spoke with him. do you think you will be successful? his visit address was just to inspect and go for an hour. healy and we took the review friendly in

a very private room. and he promised us that he's going to during the, as the fence and to bring him back later minutes. okay. uh, speaking of stolen things, an active thoughts. nicholas, he is working on a project to do. does that re touched some of the student works? that's well, sometimes in the, again the trauma and being separated from things of value. do you feel that to contemporary tons on your society? one of the most important things that the german colonialism did to the country is taking out a lot of material from the country to germany, to museums in germany. and the taking out of these material with just a sickness is more of a symbol of what the color in your system did at large, which is do you cannot make a social and political plunder of local systems. so we're speaking here from a conceptual point of view, about lots of folks, but again, coming back to you, your family, this is real, right? so how's it affected you from an emotional point of view as when you think about

your children and your father, how does it make you feel and do great grandfather? oh for me now, because we have lost a lot of religious download when day ahead was dropped and that fact we had taken. so we had nothing a real lift intended. no one was there to do that and the story of what was special for those efforts which we had taken. so we have those through the, our culture fi, you're doing a film, actually that's the following bundle street. another one as well. and as you were doing it anything that jumped out to to which you weren't aware of about colonial history, i think speaking to the question of law. so it's also the last of the importance of the spaces that we still occupied information. so in most of these cases, you have to understand that communities had to watch when their freedom fighters, their fathers, their uncles were being hung in public spaces. some of the spaces of the chose for

example, were like market spaces, where obviously this is where the community came together, right? things happens, they're the one life events that attach them to those spaces. and so then by making these points where the people had to be there to actually watch something traumatic happen, you, it's like you've detonated something within that space in the community will never be able to exist around it in the same way ever again, let me come to and go briefly because the 2 of you, a students of history, a, c, c has said things have been lost. we've been, you of human beings. do you identify with the statement? i did. so i did tap to, you know, i have to because once we have lost the car to it, to be easy to be feed without, it was the cut over 2 out of 4 or 4 out of 4 custom. you know, i, the chinese a good because you have replaced them. they've got you the same as the same as to, to in depth and gather. okay. but you know what you're saying is absolutely sports

on, but i just want to find out, do you think that's tons and e, as in general and africans, are we traumatized from colonization? would you say that we are? we can say that everything is fine with us. uh, it looked fine, but what i see is like we are just not bill springs of our great grandfathers into our grandfathers. but yes, we're just continuing. what was blown by the gentleman. we just keeping the tradition which they wanted to impose in us. we're not keeping what our grandfathers and well great grandfather rattled by the great grandfathers. all right, let me hear from you. is this something that you're trying to bring back quickly last from the essence of course are not easy. we need to change our systems because that's what we're leaving for. we're not leaving for all of the goals we are leaving for the folks that were taken. so the fact that they government and other people are making a lot of efforts to preserve these things to be as the essence of our history. but

we need to change our systems from our leadership styles and other things because that's what we are leaving for. i know you spoke about and you colonialism. you'll be to how is it still money festing associated is calling it a corner isn't ended, but new orleans go to the are these infected and that people uh, what are you looking at? are they taking gaming and losing the same people, local noise and the same people getting now some new equipment? is it so they would just change the system? what do we do then about that? you call us because how long for, how long will we be talking about colonialism and colonialism ways, or agency ways or right to tell me who we want to be as african. this is not the story necessarily of only being a victim. it is the story of resilience because the, regardless of everything that has been done, we're still here. we are still planning. we have so creating, we have still telling stories, and i think there is the power in owning that space in which you tell your own

stories is for us as are these as creators to re imagined to say how can we be to say, how, what can we tap within ourselves and continue to create that process of change and speaking of change. secondly, the german government seems to be willing of these for now to apologize for that. first it is, it could be said in africa re sent to you folks also signed by the president of the country. as i mentioned earlier, did come to the country and issued the very strongly worded apology for your family . you want, obviously the remains of your family members back for the government. it could be reparations. i what i hear all the time. you know? so if we add me to this, it will doings then the ask because we want money. truthful? well, reparations, i think is an important word because it's a word that is demanding something for the loss. and that's because these things are crude over time. the, the things that they took, the people that they took, they took with intention to destroy any intention to gain also because it was worth

it did build the well, so that went away from these communities from our countries. and so when we talk about reparations, what we're talking about is a restoration of that. well, it does not necessarily means that it is only something that can be acquired to paying people back in terms of cash. but you were talking about imagining how reparations can at least add to either cultural, building, infrastructural building. there's so many ways is people who answer stories and needs to come home or go to these countries to look for their people. how is that being facilitated? all of these things just need to be made and reparations, and something that is done on our terms, nobody else's. uh well, i thank you for your comments and i thank you all for your contributions. and i thank you for viewing the if you'd

like to watch a longer version of this debate, you can find its own all youtube channel. that's no take a show due to a to guy know where we to young artists who wanted to reconnect with our cultural heritage which was disrupted by colonial rule through how we'll find out the history of gun as royal umbrellas. a key people use of an umbrella is to shoot a pest and from harsh weather conditions. but in gunnar, using an umbrella for a king or queen in a traditional space, goes beyond that function. so there's many stories that helps the importance of why the umbrellas came or already settled in gonna um, many of our teams and clean mother has already used the umbrellas. but during the early 1700. the umbrella for gifted by the dutch. but they all have different imagery, different sizes, different colors and fabrications. with that, when that benson was born to coming in parents and grew up in the united states,

she late to relocate to grandma and set up to see him, the foundation that offers the platform where demi is coming to rest with a historical past to present the day so say honey and my connection to the royal umbrellas were away from me. so be reconnected to my call to a heritage and to also to my to continue legacy that my parents you to tell me about when i was younger. i mean, as far but my grandfather and being able to see that a lot of his information wasn't assessable and gonna, and even to our family. it may be realized. a lot of individuals like myself, who are in gonna, or even outside, are dealing with the same thing where they know about their lives. they know about this history, but they don't have any photos or artifacts to bring it back or reconnected. rick to inbox on for our journey from the capital city across to meet one of the

royal umbrella mika's income i see in the ocean to region as i go for the people say we are the mission to the region. i predominantly umbrella, make it the one who felt to me this craft is called clear from supple. his knowledge, the number lovely king is divine. for me, this craft provides the means to look off to my from the road umbrellas. there used to be an identical tater for a lot of the individuals that are coming towards the ceremonies and festivals. many times, as you can have multiple umbrella as even if it's large or small, but they're never gonna have the same design. and even when the, maybe the ashanti king is in front of other kings or like sub sieves, his umbrella will always be the largest, or he'll be surrounded by multiple umbrellas. not just one, where many of the subsidies will be under maybe a medium sized umbrella to show that at the end of the day, the socket king is the king of all of the other chiefs. when there is

a white umbrella, it might not have any design, it would just be a plain white umbrella. the so cases that a chief has some religious context or he is represented by a church, but usually don't be don't for special events or maybe for that special ceremony that you'll see a white umbrella before my residency started. i was part of the group. exhibitions, bells curated by my ones. i can. it was a great opportunity for me to so case my umbrellas and a gallery space. usually my umbrellas, i've seen and the museum exhibitions. but it was the 1st time for me to really see how a new audience will interact with my work and also to be able to re introduce myself and a new light where now i'm bringing the historical archives and the importance of the roy umbrellas and a gallery space is surely who we are. i've gotten in and africans at
