95 Graves had no names – until now. In 2018, a construction site in Sugar Land, Texas, revealed a hidden cemetery. The remains of 95 African American men – victims of convict leasing system – had been buried without record and recognition. Now, a team of anthropologists, archaeologists and genetic genealogists are working to restore their identities using Forensic Investigative Genetic Genealogy (#FIGG). Learn how forensic science is restoring identity to the Sugar Land 95. 👉 https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.plnkd.in/eJn75hPZ
