Righting Historical Wrongs? Understanding repatriation, rest
What is the repatriation of Ancestors and restitution of cultural heritage? Since the 1980s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have pioneered the return of their ancestors from museums. The recent return of the Gweagal spears highlights how objects are increasingly central to repatriation initiatives. What is repatriation and restitution and why unscramble the egg of historical dispossession? Dr Gareth Knapman talks about his work in supporting repatriation and restitution of ancestors and cultural heritage and how it builds peaceful relations in the modern world.
