Today, we go into the 2nd day of our conference on "Memory Processes in Imperial Lifeworlds". We look at all kinds of different objects, and discuss what roles they play in ongoing processes of #decolonization. Naturally, the question of restitution is important.
In this video, Marie Julien Danga (Bertoua) explains the complicated history of a now infamous object in the Humboldt Forum in Berlin, the throne of the king of Bamum.
