Last October, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston did something unprecedented. It restored ownership of two of Drake’s pots to his descendants, marking the first time that such a claim had been resolved for a work of art crafted through the forced labor of Africans in America. Other museums and collectors own the pots, which today sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars.
