I encounter issues with folks on Facebook frequently in my work, and it's a big problem when it comes to illicit human remains sales as well. Good to see this getting more attention!
The #PeoplingPodcast is BACK! Today, to kick off Season 4, we are joined by Katie Paul to discuss the role of Facebook in the illicit antiquities trade, and how the company has been complicit in the sale and destruction of cultural heritage. Listen here: peoplingthepast.com/2025/04/29/p...

'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts

Because many Indigenous worldviews do not hold a clear separation between the human and animal spheres, common museum practices do not align with the ideas of respectful or culturally informed care of animal remains. Chance Ward & co-authors want to change this. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts.
Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressionally mandated. They’ve saved millions of lives. 🧵
