Video: Possible second cemetery located at Dozier

I'm not clear why civil rights activists aren't over the Dozier School for Boys abuse case like white on rice. Seriously, the practice of segregation permeated much of the school's history due to Jim Crow and it wasn't until late 60s, possibly 70s that the school became integrated.

There were separate buildings, facilities, even the "White House" where children

were beaten and tortured was segregated. So, it seems only logical that children who had every function in their life segregated were also buried in separate locations.

Researchers from the University of South Florida are currently exhuming bodies from the "Boot Hill Cemetery" but this was widely known as the "colored" cemetery for the school's history.

So, where are the white boys buried?

It is absolutely illogical to assume that only black boys died and were buried at the school; the scanty records the school has shows that multiple white students died. Will there be white bodies in Boot Hill? Most likely, but those may be the remains of those who died after the school integrated.

There is no doubt in my mind that there are bodies buried in another location (if not haphazardly buried throughout the property).

USF addressed the possibility of a second cemetery in this news report below.
