Story Text

Ein Museum in England zeigt jetzt 40.000 besondere Objekte. Das ist Teil eines neuen Projekts namens Africa Hub. Die Stücke sind wichtige Gegenstände aus afrikanischer Kultur und Geschichte. Das sind zum Beispiel alte Musikinstrumente, Werkzeuge und Statuen. Das Museum verstand früher nicht immer, wie wichtig diese Dinge waren. Viele Objekte wurden zur Zeit der britischen Kolonialzeit gestohlen. Heute soll das Projekt Gespräche über die Gegenstände und ihre Zukunft bringen. Menschen verstehen die Geschichte besser, wenn sie mehr darüber lernen. Dann stellt sich die Frage: Sollen die Objekte in England bleiben oder nach Afrika zurückkehren?
