Dinosaurs and Decolonizing Paleontology w/ Aline Ghilardi, Juan Cisneros, & Tito Aureliano

In this episode of Guerrilla History, we have a fascinating discussion alongside three wonderful paleontologists based in Brazil about efforts to decolonize paleontology and restitute stolen fossils. These three have written some great articles on this topic, such as The moral and legal imperative to return illegally exported fossils, Colonial history and global economics distort our understanding of deep-time biodiversity, and Digging deeper into colonial palaeontological practices in modern day Mexico and Brazil. This is a crucial conversation, and one which we feel doesn't get nearly enough attention even within political circles like the one we operate in. #IrritatorBelongstoBr
