This is the Full Edition(FE) of our response video,to a comment from our previous video about the fake Benin Empire created by the British in 1897. The Present Day Benin Kingdom in the so called South Southern part of the Slave Coast or Nigeria which is today being presented as a very large kingdom to aid the slave masters’ conquest of Southern Nigeria.

The Benin's are still casting bronze today, this is an indigenous African technique. It is also done in Cameroon. You would have to say the British taught Africans to sculpt metal artwork, that very thought is quite desperate and maybe even unhinged.
This video tries to show that the present day Benin Kingdom in Southern Nigeria formerly Lower Guinea, formerly Ethiopia is different from the historical and Ancient Benin recorded in the history books and supposedly from where the Slave master stole artefacts.
The modern Day Benin Revisionists and supremacists are either ignorant or illiterate or both and now suggesting the tiny Benin Kingdom created by the British in 1897 could have been the massive Benin Kingdom recorded in historical books.
Please watch the video and look for the materials referenced and study them yourself.
