Abstract

The article presents an argument for museums in North America to join together and develop a process of restitution regarding Africa's archaeological and colonial-era heritage. It mentions about embracing an open, honest, and transparent dialogue with our African peers about the realities and enduring impact of colonialism and the role of restitution in addressing this history. It also informs on discussions regarding the sustainable development of Africa's cultural sector so that claims for restitution could be effectively made and implemented.
