Reuters reported last week that they discovered the true identity of the world famous street artist, Banksy. Culture critic Hanna Flint and 'Monumnetal Graffiti' author Rafael Schacter join Commotion to discuss whether the public has a right to Banksy’s identity and the value of anonymity. Plus, South African gaming studio Nyamakop released the heist game ‘Relooted’. Players are tasked to reclaim real African artifacts from Western museums. Oscar Michael Esio joins Elamin Abdelmahmoud to talk about the divided reaction to ‘Relooted’ from the African gaming community, and whether he thinks the game is a success.
