Woke scholars call for anthropologists to stop classifying human remains by gender & race

This information is vital to criminal investigations and understanding ancient civilizations

Newsroom July 19 01:26

Woke activists are calling for anthropologists to stop classifying human remains as “male” or “female” as well as by racial ancestry.

Archeologists and anthropologists, including those who specialize in criminal forensics, frequently use information about human remains, such as the size and shape of the bones, to determine the gender or race of the deceased individual. This information is often vital to criminal investigations as well as important to understanding ancient civilizations.

Now though, some woke scholars say the time for classifying human remains by gender and race is gone since we cannot know how the deceased person identified, even if they lived hundreds of years ago.
