The Brutish Museums

Bedrosian Bookclub Podcast

The Brutish Museums by Dan Hicks is a necrography wherein each stolen item from Benin City is an ongoing event: each event a story of colonial violence told and retold through daily viewings by tourists and school children.

It is also a "calling in" for museum curators to work toward a future of restitution; a future of museums free of stolen objects, cultures, and histories.

Host Aubrey Hicks is joined by Jen Bravo, David Sloane, and Donnajean Ward.
