American Guy Reacts: France gave back artifacts stolen from Africa!?

[@notsosuavemate]

Your turn Britain 🇬🇧

[@margaretflounders8510]

We paid for ours...

[@Adilulph]

Britain returning what they looted ? I'd better believe that It'd be delivered by Santa

[@totheedge25]

That artifact next to it looks like Jar Jar Binks, from Star Wars.

[@videlina978]

Yeah it's nice that some museums return artpieces to their original country. It can also lead to cultural exchange and partenership between museums.

[@MonkeySlayer-j7z]

“Art pieces” Where is the art? Blacks aren’t crab bake of producing art because they don’t have the intelligence. These are items that a white liberal has called art but they’re not art at all

[@notsosuavemate]

5:12 reminder who made them unstable in the first place ? US meddling and other colonial powers

[@aweybley]

there are several hundred thousand artifacts stolen during colonization by Europeans and the most scandalous are the severed heads of our ancestors, more than 30,000 that they keep in their homes and a few months ago a certain number were put up for sale in Brussels, Belgium

[@joelhungerford8388]

Not your ancestors

[@MonkeySlayer-j7z]

False. There are millions of racist low IQ black morons who blame whites for doing to blacks what they did to each other for millennia. They’re so thick they think that’s why whites are successful

[@MonkeySlayer-j7z]

“The decree sheafs of our ancestors” The racist black vermin attack everyone in the 21st century

Important to know that the French were attacking the Daomei kingdom ( a slave state enslaving their neighbors ) with the consent of the Benin king who were happy to get rid of his nation ennemy. The British didn't loot Greece, British archeologists discovered these artifacts in Greece when it was under muslim Turkish control whom destroyed ancient artifacts. British actually saved them.

Hi from Perpignan NAIA, 🌴🌞 This idea of ​​restitution has been in the pipeline for a while. France has inaugurated a domino effect that is already producing these benefits for the African community since in the same movement Germany will do it too. On the other hand, we must indeed remain very careful with unstable countries that can overnight switch to the most radical Islamism, leading the new powers in place, in a collective hysteria and a destructive madness, to burn these works considered profane. As was the case in the city of Palmyra in Syria or the Mosul Museum in Iraq and other places in the World over the last 30 years. I remember when I saw the images on the television news, I lumped in my throat in front of so much stupidity, ignorance, and disrespect for the history of people. Peace, folks. ☮👈😎

[@videlina978]

And yeah I would say racism is less common in "Europe" (depends a lot on the country) even tho due to migrations that is sadly more and more the case (right wings is taking a lots of votes, in Italy they won, in the last french parlement election they lost and left side won but our president is a peace of sh*t so he didn't acknowledge the vote of the population, in Poland I know it's catastrophic the governement is racist, super christian and homophobic, Spain, Germany and other nations I don't really know). But in general it's definitly not as bad ad in the USA, we don't categorize each other with race/ethnical/regional/political or religious appartenance all the time (for example in france it's illégal to do "ethniques"(ethnical) statistics). Ans yeah, they are racist people but it's more a passive racisme, than an active one that leads to violence.

Germany did return the artifacts but they got swiped as soon as they arrived. Apparently when you give “priceless” pieces to an impoverished and unstable country someone is able to find a price real fast. Say what you want about the British museum but at least they can keep their stuff safe.

[@brodull1142]

A lot of British artifact sold to rich people as donation for "perserving history event".

[@bahamabartokmajestikassbis5240]

made with metal from the rhein region in germany

[@DIMITRI-ddd]

[@ian.swift.31614]

[@MonkeySlayer-j7z]

Not stolen, conquered
