Yesterday we read two passages about museums and if they should display artifacts from different cultures even if the country of origin asked for it back. Today we got the passages back and had to write an argumentative essay about which side we agreed with. I personally think it’s ok for museums to display these artifacts, but if the culture or country it came from asks for it back they should return it. At the same time though, a I’m pretty sure big museums and archaeologist would steal these cultural treasures on purpose so they won’t care if the people they stole it from asked for it back.
