Descrição: Anthropologists and museum curators were forced to reckon with this act of violence, and the response was swift. [...]Hicks tells this violent story by following the itineraries of the Benin bronzes, writing a necrography of human and cultural loss. [...]as Katherine McKittrick points out in her book Dear Science and Other Stories,1 do not accept Black death, suffering and degradation as legitimate scholarly findings.
