MADISON, Wis.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–More than 1000 forensic DNA experts and law enforcement professionals from around the world will gather at the International Symposium on Human Identification (ISHI) October 31 \u2013 November 3 in Washington D.C. Keynote speaker DeNeen L. Brown, a reporter at The Washington Post<\/i>, will discuss the Red Summer of 1919, when a reign of racist massacres swept more than 25 US cities, and the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. Brown’s reporting prompted the City of Tulsa to reopen an investigation into the search for mass graves of Black people killed during the massacre. In 2020, scientists discovered a mass grave in the city’s public cemetery.\n<\/p>\n
