Restitution? Africa's Fight for Its Art
Restituer ? L'Afrique en quête de ses chefs-d'œuvre
Restitution? Africa's Fight for Its Art Free Online HD on Lookmovie. There is an interlinking history of violent European colonialism and the cultural legacy of ethnographic collections in institutions. This documentary traces the progression of colonial history from the Berlin Conference of 1884-85 to the systematic elimination of cultural traditions, religions and lifeways which would occur sporadically through genocides and warfare until the early 20th century throughout the African continent—surveying the inquiries and movements for historical justice, the relationships between European institutions and colonial violence and following enduring struggles against these organisations to regain what was taken.
