When Museums Tell Lies About Who We Are
Walk through London's British Museum and you're surrounded by artifacts that tell a story of human civilization-but whose story? Angela Saini's "Superior" forces us to confront an uncomfortable truth: the science we've trusted to explain human differences has, for centuries, been twisted to justify the unjustifiable. As genetic ancestry tests flood the market and nationalist movements surge worldwide, we're living through a moment when old myths about race are being repackaged in the language of DNA. The question isn't whether race exists biologically-science settled that debate-but why so many still cling to the belief that it does. What makes this exploration urgent is that it comes from a science journalist armed with evidence, not ideology, methodically revealing how our most respected institutions have weaponized research to create hierarchies where none exist.
