Mwazulu Diyabanza is a Congolese activist who would prefer France’s museums were open so he could get some attention for taking African objects from their displays “to highlight what he sees as the mass pillaging of the continent by European colonialists. And it’s not just the mighty museums. Diyabanza and his supporters also plan to include smaller galleries, private collections and auction houses in their campaign. ‘Wherever the riches of our heritage and culture have been stolen,’ says the 42-year-old, ‘we will intervene.'” – The Guardian (UK)
