Recently, there has been a movement for the decolonization of museums across the globe. Historically, several museums ranging from the British Museum to the Denver Art Museum have illegally obtained artifacts from other historical sites and represented them inaccurately. As a global movement to acknowledge the remnants of colonialism, in 2021, President of France Emmanuel Macron vowed to return 26 African artworks to the country of Benin. Macron denounced the colonial pillage and African heritage existing in private collections and European museums. In actuality, France only returned a handful of objects, despite thousands of outstanding requests. Museums have become devices that help  shape colonialism and stories of conquests. Various museums and art collections across the world are responsible for the illegal looting of materials from many countries years ago. To this day, there are continued investigations that reveal the many objects that were historically stolen from other countries. As museums and art collectors become more aware of their moral responsibility and the place that colonization has in the art space, there is more that can be done to restore justice.
