Remains of people exhibited in ‘human zoos’ to be returned to French Guiana

In 1892, around 30 men, women and children from the Kali’na and Arawak peoples of French Guiana were brought to Paris to be put on display at "human zoos". Six of them did not survive the winter. A bill allowing the repatriation of their remains to their homeland has now received final approval – the culmination of a long struggle waged by their descendants.
