The fetishization of the remains of Black People is disturbing in #bioanth. Even today, it speaks to how Western science operates on the basis of ⚪ supremacy/privilege that really shows the indifference about Black life that is socialized into our society. #ReturnDelisha

We also begin 2 see individualism take form here. "It's not me". A few bad apples is a lie. How we operate now is still through a violent system that reproduces itself through, silence, distancing, coercion & whisper networks that teach people how to be better @ the violence

Even the good ones shrink themselves for fear of being 'next' to be called out...so there is refusal to address the harm caused by the unethical, anti-black behavior until it is virtually viralized across social medias'

1: There this a thing that happens where they drown the truth in details.
And that's what they did here: the highly paid partners at a fancy law firm, @llc_tucker, wrote a total POS 217 pg "independent legal report" for @Penn, claiming the Penn Museum never had Delisha's bones.

2: This claim was in response to two things:
1. The original reporting last April said @pennmuseum had the remains of 2 children murdered in the 1985 MOVE bombing.
2. Only one child's remains, Katricia/Tree's, were retrieved from the home a former curator & returned her family.

3: In their attempt to explain the discrepancy, incl eyewitness accounts & actual x-rays taken @CAAMatPenn of Delisha's remains, @Penn's report scapegoated a single graduate student, claiming he planted evidence...on a day when he was literally out of the country.
(Impressive!)
