The 16th to 19th century Benin bronzes were made with metal manillas the Benin kingdom exchanged for human captives. 50 manillas for a woman. 57 for a male. They claim they did not enslave many. We ask: How many, is "not many"? No amount is too few for justice. Share the $30 billion relics with the heirs of the enslaved who paid for the bronzes with their lives!
