In a May 9, 2018 photo, Louellyn White, assistant professor in the First Peoples Studies program at Concordia University in Montreal, leaves the Byberry Friends Burial Ground in Philadelphia after visiting the gravesite of Gertrude Spotted Tail. White came to Pennsylvania to search for graves of native children who died after their Carlisle Indian School masters sent them out to work as maids and farmhands. As she hunted for burial records in the library of the Byberry Quaker Meeting in Philadelphia, she made a horrifying discovery: a yellowed skull, labeled as Native American, set in a display case among a collection of rocks and fossils.
