Hardback. Zustand: Good. "With We Carry Their Bones, Erin Kimmerle continues to unearth the true story of the Dozier School, a tale more frightening than any fiction. In a corrupt world, her unflinching revelations are as close as we'll come to justice." ?Colson Whitehead, Pulitzer-Prize Winning author of The Nickel Boys and The Underground RailroadForensic anthropologist Erin Kimmerle investigates of the notorious Dozier Boys School?the true story behind the Pulitzer Prize?winning novel The Nickel Boys?and the contentious process to exhume the graves of the boys buried there in order to reunite them with their families.The Arthur G. Dozier Boys School was a well-guarded secret in Florida for over a century, until reports of cruelty, abuse, and ?mysterious? deaths shut the institution down in 2011. Established in 1900, the juvenile reform school accepted children as young as six years of age for crimes as harmless as truancy or trespassing. The boys sent there, many of whom were Black, were subject to brutal abuse, routinely hired out to local farmers by the school?s management as indentured labor, and died either at the school or attempting to escape its brutal conditions.In the wake of the school?s shutdown, Erin Kimmerle, a leading forensic anthropologist, stepped in to locate the school?s graveyard to determine the number of graves and who was buried there, thus beginning the process of reuniting the boys with their families through forensic and DNA testing. The school?s poorly kept accounting suggested some thirty-one boys were buried in unmarked graves in a remote field on the school?s property. The real number was at least twice that. Kimmerle?s work did not go unnoticed; residents and local law enforcement threatened and harassed her team in their eagerness to control the truth she was uncovering?one she continues to investigate to this day.We Carry Their Bones is a detailed account of Jim Crow America and an indictment of the reform school system as we know it. It?s also a fascinating dive into the science of forensic anthropology and an important retelling of the extraordinary efforts taken to bring these lost children home to their families?an endeavor that created a political firestorm and a dramatic reckoning with racism and shame in the legacy of America.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The problem of missing, endangered, and unidentified persons is increasingly approached through a human rights model with successful outcomes. Contexts vary from international investigations into war crimes, genocide, and extrajudicial killings to American 'cold cases.' In all these examples, anthropologists play critical roles such as searching for clandestine graves, crime scene recovery, human identification, interviewing witnesses, repatriation, public education, and testifying in court. To successfully identify unknown persons, key questions about human variation and biology are essential. For example, can ancestry be reliably estimated What are the ramifications of estimating the biological profile of an unknown person without appropriate references samples Does the variation occur because of inherent genetic variation or environmental conditions Given the potential variation that exists, what are the implications of using standard calibrations across populations in criminal trials Moreover, forensic anthropologists today work in diverse cultural and legal environments. How do the roles of forensic anthropologists differ in diverse legal settings The current practice of forensic anthropology ranges from field to lab to courtroom and has evolved as a discipline from what it was almost a century ago. The purpose of this volume is to explore the ways in which forensic anthropology intersects with current human right and humanitarian justice initiatives. The 11 papers in this series include a range of emerging new tools and approaches to human identification and the investigation of long-term missing and unidentified persons.…
