A few days in class this week we watched a film about how while digging up a landfill, bodies of slaves were discovered in the heart of New York. There was a big debate whether or not to preserve the bodies or not. I personally think that the bodies should have stayed buried and not been inspected by scientists. Although the bodies could give us a further knowledge of life back in the 1800's that is a proper burial for them and that should not be messed with. It was just like a normal cemetary so why should the bodies be dug up. If it were not graves of slaves there would be no controversy and the bodies would stay burried like they should.
