The final episode of Monuments, Museums & Mojitos Season One is out now! We round off our two-part discussion on the British Museum (cultural treasure or atrocity?!)
Over the two-parter, we discuss the Benin Bronzes, the Rosetta Stone, and the Parthenon Marbles. These are all disputed collections, where the country of origin have demanded these artefacts to be returned, and the British Museum has politely declined...Way to have a negotiation!
We tell you a bit about their histories, share our thoughts, and have a natter about just how pig-headed these colonial institutions can be. JIZ5l3ofpN9UP8APhNhO
