The University of Pennsylvania and Princeton University are facing
serious questions about how researchers handled human remains from the
1985 police bombing of a Black separatist group in West Philadelphia.
This scrutiny follows revelations that the universities housed
unidentified children’s remains from the bombing for years, and that the
remains were used for teaching at Penn.
The anthropologist at the center of the case says he’s troubled by
allegations that he acted unethically, and some in the field have spoken
up to defend him. But critics see the case as an undeniable example of
academic racism, made even more bitter by the police actions that
underlie it.
