Sinopse
A hundred years ago, leading scientists at Harvard, Yale, Princeton and Columbia Universities all argued that evolutionary biology showed non-white races were lower on the evolutionary scale. Some were actually considered "missing links" between man and apes and were put on public display at the Bronx Zoo. John West at the Discovery Institute produced the Amazon Prime documentary "Human Zoos." He faults the Bronx Zoo and the Museum of Natural History for having "cultural amnesia" about their racist past.
