This tragic burial ground should be designated a historic National Park and a place of mourning.

Why are you using dozens instead of close to 100? When did we start rounding down when the number ended with a 5?
-
I thought the same thing! The photo caption said 95...then the first sentence says “dozens”. That’s a vast difference

The anger I feel from this, cannot be expressed. They forced these people to work to the death, and then dumped them in the ground like a trash. What of their families? Just more proof how black and brown people regarded as not human. Many still do.

Maybe you could do an expose on how a handful of trump supporters in a bar in Pittsburgh feel about this discovery.

I think it’s strange that even though the people interviewed were like, “Yeah, they were forced to work....so, they were kinda, more or less slaves.” Nah, you can say they were slaves. Not kinda.

-
technically speaking, they were convicts.... so theoretically people who committed crimes (even though i'm pretty sure at the time it wasn't as civil as it is now) and put in forced labor as a punishment for their actions.
-
How can we assume that these "convictions" were valid. Given the attitude and racist laws of the time? There aren't any white people in that mass grave. Doubt that there are any records. they So it seems to me their only crime was being born Black.
-
i agree with the first part - dissagree with the presumption that the crime was strictly 'being black'. for the numbers it's obviously just curiosity. We can say that in that spot, there weren't any white people - there is a lot of land in the US

Maybe you're not familiar w/post slavery behavior and the laws put in place to keep slavery going. Here is an excerpt from the article. But there is much written on this subject.pic.twitter.com/3Pw28TjEQM

Check out my other tweet, curiously i was already thinking you'd bring it up!
