I can't be the only one that wonders when they see a British museum housing African artifacts, that it was part of a smash and grab 200 years ago that's still ongoing. They imply that's not the case, and I don't like assuming it is, but I'm pretty sure they're still withholding artifacts from home countries

The article implies that that absolutely is the case.
