I’m gonna procrastinate this afternoon by collecting some choice responses to the recent @SAPIENS_org article about the lack of diversity in archaeology: https://www.sapiens.org/archaeology/archaeology-diversity/

Because I want white archaeologists to see what BIPOC deal with in this field, constantly.

absolutely losing it over the idea of calling archaeologists “progressive” when I’ve experienced the exact opposite amongst my colleagues

well, that was fun

My work is truly never done.

more folks should be thanking me for my service

also finally called an NPC on the internet, we are truly breaking ground today

Anyway, a lot of racists are harrassing @bones_canada, who is white but has used her platform to raise these issues before in the past, so feel free to help Block and Report these folks, thanks.

I don't even know how to respond to this one

Anyway, I hope both #archaeology Twitter and hell, even #ScienceTwitter pays attention to this, particularly those of you who love to claim that archaeology/science isn't political.

Folks truly believe that archaeology/science wouldn't exist without whiteness.
