Support our former RA Joรซl Eke from Benin for his masters at the Paris School of Economics! Despite his great achievements, Joรซl still faces a significant financial hurdle to cover tuition and living costs. He's halfway there. Any support is highly appreciated!

Would it maybe be an idea to add "cases" for individuals who were engaged in the critique of colonial collections as well? But that's of course biased by my research interest ๐
Brilliant collection of case studies on restitution claims of African cultural objects and human remains in European colonial collections. I love the chronology of restitution efforts provided and the reflexivity of the research process and methodology!

Eighty years ago today, over 7,000 prisoners of the German Nazi camp #Auschwitz, including some 700 children, were liberated by the soldiers of the Soviet Army.
1,689 days of murder, pain, suffering, and humiliation were over.
Today, we all remember. We must keep remembering.
Heute vor 80 Jahren wurde das KZ Auschwitz befreit.
Wider das Vergessen.

Para entender la magnitud del horror: desde 1994 han muerto 10.000 personas tratando de cruzar la frontera entre Mรฉxico y EEUU. Ha muerto tanta gente tratando de llegar a Espaรฑa en un aรฑo como tratando de llegar a EEUU en 30 aรฑos.
