initially thought the surveillance camera perched across the street had frozen jurors heard a recording of her call for help something out of the back of. the prosecution also played witness video for nearly 10 minutes and it flew back children to get off of him and he begged for his mother the jury also heard witnesses plead for mercy on his behalf. as though the rule of law and. they were all. floored. when well good. police charged with killing unarmed black people are really convicted civil rights activists say chosen is not on trial alone that this case is about fairness and black humanity in the united states. we are here to see the case of

a deep respect for the cult of the tongue under the cover the issues of colonial looting war and the repatriation of african art is every bit as pressing a topic here as it is in europe you chop off to get the impression that out debate here tends to remain very eurocentric off option b. no one is talking to africans and asking them what they envisage what solutions they have in mind and want to sort of co-operation they would like to see is the repack creation of objects so this. some of which are over 100 years old what matters most to them all might they have other priorities figure i'll stick to where not say all i am not saying that everything should be right on but if there are walls that were taken on the various our conversations i think they should be returned to their own good justification for the killing spree massacre and therefore the columbia just appears on fully functional return for the consumer attention. to work lives in the mold of

villages massacring local residents once they had captured the city they began looting its monuments and the royal palace ivory wood carvings masks bronze sculptures and relieves thousands of valuable artifacts were stolen shipped to europe and distributed to its major museums berlin ended up with one of the largest collections. the obama was sent into exile. to this day there has been little repatriation of these looted artifacts in 2000 prints aidoo and submitted a formal requests. yes to the british house of commons for restitution of a number of items in vain i think you will want to try to tone of those things but they belong here they said they were made on weed mill the pump of the drilling why we made them headed to every country corner laws they are headed to they have

traded gifted and looted well over 1500000 of them. but only 5 percent have ever been put on display in many instances little is known about them beyond brief notes in the museum's inventories to whom did they originally belong what was their purpose provenance research can help shed light on their origins but often entails laborious detective work so that the linden museum stuttgart is looking into the provenance of its limit the a collection with the help of stephen issaka from the initiative heritage watch namibia would be for starters we would not know what in the stalls of european museums we would not we would not have the full inventory the size the log of the markets and basically our museum store is awful some of the artifacts are increasingly in

a state of disrepair because museums are unable to restore them and properly look after that interview. on. 2 objects have been exhibited in stuttgart just twice in over 100 years a bible and a whip from namibia. in 2013 the namibian embassy formally requested their return. german southwest africa 893. hendrik with boy lived in a village called han cons. he was the chief of a nama clan and a devout lutheran. driven by his religious ideals he rebelled against the cruelty of the colonial oppressors. that apra german colonial forces attacked and ransacked the village 80 people were brutally murdered and the others taken by the soldiers who also made off with with boys bible and cattle web after the massacre which boy

february 29th the delegation touches down in winter early in the morning. was. was hendrik replies descendants are attending the reception. and the 50. 5 in. a debate about the repatriation of stolen art has been raging in berlin for some

time the rebuild berlin city palace will how is the humbled forum which will serve as the new home of the ethanol. tical museum. but how many of its treasures are colonial blood antiquities. the homeless forum has brought the issue of looted art center stage. it's not the 1st time that berlin has been at the heart of a debate about imperialism. the african continent promised the colonial rulers wealth and power. colonial expansion was in full flow when in 1904 german chancellor to fund bismarck invited european diplomats to berlin for what would go down in history as the congo conference. there they drew up a framework to regulate european colonization and trade in africa overriding most

existing forms of african autonomy and self governance britain france portugal belgium and germany all scrambled for their share they carved up the continent between them arbitrarily drawing up borders that partly exist to this day. many former colonies are still struggling to gain economic independence to resolve lingering conflicts over those arbitrarily drawn borders and to overcome the sense of inferiority instilled in them by the colonial masters. there's a lot of political mentality among the people thinking. we have nothing we are nothing we were never anything but so most right to be like you cannot must us in order to. get it as human beings but this narrative is coming to force. in

a bar has opened his studio and been in city 2 young artists many of them explore the trauma of colonial rule in their creative work. was sad to see keep lens paint with sand from eagle in st the historical home of the big name brands casters. when you're preparing the book roll with a star friend barbara main thing itself always has to be difficult. so that is a connection so a little bit tricky because you have to go to the books too because we don't have the full scope of jet c.s.o. the country. relates to this thins one on one. so it must within the stories concern in the green on our students is and again to our young people can see this excellence representationalism to me but i was i still wasn't as proud of. ok is proud of because western art. is made up of subjects of 4 forms which are alien to

us. she called me a spotless proud arial to some level but even if because alchemy is powered by african must you imagine how our africa come inspired by b. think i must but would have been to see yeah but an estimated 95 percent of artifacts from the main currently housed in museums overseas were looted during the punitive expedition are you going to distance more legible binning has been calling for their return for more than a century but with no result the artifacts are scattered around the world it's a logistical challenge if we want the artifacts book by all means who do speak to. you speak to the presumed crossties do speak to the government to speak to someone and get her nana's place collections done belong to the various museums the museums can make recommendations for specific approaches 0 procedures but ultimately it's

a political decision because the us effects of public assets is public museums in europe are generally custodians and therefore not in a position to make autonomous decisions about repatriation in 2010 useem director bob plank in china co-founded the beneath a dialogue group museum directors and delegates from europe and nigeria meet annually to discuss efforts to reunite the binning works of art dispersed in collections around the world. i mean for when we started many years ago we were thinking in terms of heaven and planets because museums would have been able to make such decisions themselves as a mining critic and what i would criticize about that they need a dialogue group is the lack of transparency and the fact that still talking about prominent loans even though nigerian colleagues see that as a continuation of colonialist privilege and power structures basically the european

museums are saying well if you don't agree to permanent loans then you won't get the bronzes back and become devout kind of put all of it within the law who was never said that was the obvious belong to. the house so they called to say that now that they've. really told. us and i'm look let's bring them in for us let me move you them. i do not think it is what. yes the bin the people want it all went alone do they want i'll treasure told. him they need city there is also disagreement over the best course of action clearly it will take more than initiatives like they've been in dialogue group to resolve the problem.

a writer and professor of german language and literature prince coleman demanded the 3rd has been calling for a return of his grandfather's tangay for over 20 years. when it was seized by monks in 1904 block pre-sale was head of the billy bennett people. the munich museum where it ended up wants proof that the prince is his rightful heir design in the eyes you want to be advisor they say they want proof the manger and does them both bring in this book i've gathered all the documents the germans require showing that i am rock preserves rightful heir. he had so much he goes on this year for example in 1904 a better man and named me heir to the throne as. the new pres prince is an elite member of the ballet by the chiefdom he's

a member of the family but he's not the king message but what. the gondola water festival is getting started on a do on us incumbent kings have gathered. the point about there is here to represent the bell a bell and then inch that was. he has little interest in a tangle where the artifacts to be returned to cameroon it would serve to strengthen his rival commandant his claim to the throne is. the power struggle in a better than a family hampering the repatriation effort. the complexity distance who owns in east also it's a complex matter. in our opinion it is insufficient evidence that common don't bear the 3rd is the precise legitimate successor. he was we most certainly made the talks because playing with the official head of the bella bella

family poland the wrong see it live in germany insists on a game shaping with a chieftains authorized person then that's me so there was still wasn't the question of lot of praise it was succession is fraught with controversy into allah he had 32 sons so a number of potential successors including horton is he is most definitely not a descendant of last resort the germans they don't even realise he doesn't even belong to what results family of 4 look for the elves this is here. it's very hard for us to get to the bottom of this conflict to believe you know who for the question has to be resolved before we can return the artefact. deep seated people. it might not have a high profile in europe but nigeria's contemporary art scene is one of the most

vibrant in africa the nico art gallery in lagos opened in 2007 and has displayed work by more than 5000 artists. o'quinn de as collection is the largest in west africa. she has her doubts about the return of the bin in bronzes. i we're ready to receive them that is the question. you want us as husband said reacquainting has his own opinion. i respect your views and their. view is not what i think should be ok where are they just risen the argument or we don't have a place to keep them who told them to own what we need if i wanted bach i will build a place that is called him and so i will know for

a while government to build the very more dam was 0 but we're told that they are not ready. you don't need a special place to keep it brooms deep is big data was secured this should be returned to the palace we are distance west to the origin and most places that were into europe it was said to me where if you let us see that this is a return to you how are we sure they would not come over to you if we came to do they would be sold to you by some people i bet you those who walk i and i get there maybe by now we will not you want to see it again if you look at the news right. they were allies that a lot of the european museums have been broken into up things have been stolen from them in the past you realize that a lot of things have not behaved on the web kat. but

nico is well aware that nigeria's art and culture institutions struggle with the lack of funding. plans for a new royal museum in binning city are progressing slowly due to limited financial resources. in 2007 a bronze head of an oboe looted from beneath city sold for a record some of $4700000.00 u.s. dollars that's other piece beneath saw none of it even midmorning from distance over the years over centuries by a bee keeping them i know how much i paid to endow the museums in the europe or in america and all of those things why don't you take some of that money back on my beautiful dress calvinist i don't believe that the museum profited perhaps conceptually thinking at the us effects were exhibited they were promoted and researched but that benefited everyone so would call this a base of

a misconception as to how public museums were crushed and fearful for him the same folks who manage to collect preserve study educate and exhibit this is the mission of a public museum but museum director would have village has had to confront the question what are the ethics of exhibiting a sacred object eluded object like the 10 day it's been on display here for over 40 years if you send us the shift we know that by today's standards munich came by the figure head i think clay you to not mention that most year we reached out and command only that you got in touch with us now the ball is in our courtship gets leaked out by by all means does it use and these are the logical museums are like prisons. they're presently just to give fans a what our soul was stolen and locked up in the best of youth the genius that we don't see these artifacts as our hostages all prisoners they are objects that bring

people together to summon a common this isn't because our ceremonial objects or them are not just ornamental doesn't the gun in the early looking at objects is a european cultural products and this is over. but isn't museum in cameroon the right home for the tongue either. maryland bell thinks not. the co-founder of the contemporary art center do all art she believes art belongs among the people in marketplaces in villages. and. we need to reframe the museum question said we don't want to say good to the objects have been great hatfield said of him and now we'll lock them up somewhere else the objects belong in a magazine and all the copies should be made and displayed in communal space and see focus groups and of shit how do we accomplish this this is how can we use these copies of it to awaken

a new historical narrative i think i could put it the same. it's the day of the gander festivals kalu race the 10 day was put in pride of place during the night in a secret ritual today the public is out in full force to support their team every other car. right there. on the run you will never know anywhere are anywhere near at. around 50 rowers fit in the canoes each boat has a name out of the neighborhood of dido is in the a beetle boss on the canoe with a green figurehead has won a number of races. ok. the german delegation in namibia is on its way to the desert town of the on my.

hendrik with boys bible and with a returning home with a military escort. the official handover is a state ceremony attended by visitors from across the country and a host of high ranking media and politicians. as brook ministers in convention i am deeply moved to see how much hendrik that voice bible and would mean to this country and especially and i'm a little ashamed now is that these objects were safeguarded but more or less languishing in our collections for other 100 years before mohammad some long ones of us museums. at the moment arrives. the bible and the whip are back where they belong. we want those cultural objects back in our

country so that our children can look study and be inspired by them. kendrick with the lawyer is a national hero in libya children are taught about the freedom fighter who rebelled against the german colonial occupation was. was his descendants single praises of his heroism was. shattered not unlike what kind that he we'll show you tomorrow as bring back everything we just not jobs. in germany they have knowledge ment of our difficult colonial past has taken far too long but it has to be done. the taken for this is the return of the midway bible and whip after more than

a 100 years far too long. and i'm deeply sorry for that. the bible and with is handed to the president of namibia. but there is an irony to the fact that the 1st major artifact to be returned by germany to africa was a bible brought by the german colonial masters to namibia and then stolen by the meat is the repatriation of looted art nearly so much empty symbolism is it perhaps not more urgent to ask how colonial thinking still shapes politics what responsibility does europe have to africa will germany ever atone for the herero nama genocide. this is for our visa questions the politicians don't want to ransom rather simply return individual items and that worries me we need a broader discussion about europe's colonial legacy little parts serious got the ultimate goal is not simply to return as much as possible says the goal is to

systematically work through the issue widen access and nurture dialogue and work together as equal partners. partners because we don't even let them in a sense you're gonna hit on how easy will it be easy for the afghan to get a visa to go to your country. but in a world riven by inequality and injustice how much of a priority is the return of stolen art are there not more urgent problems that need solving for us power and took a shot. through doing for. let me let's take it from this angle we should teach our children our what i have a teach i'm not every child can travel to germany. i don't want to see these scenes seen physically it's my ducati you've seen the. you
