This week on Florida Matters, we talk with a University of South Florida anthropologist and author about her recently published book, “We Carry Their Bones.”
In 2012, a team of researchers led by Erin Kimmerle uncovered the graves of young boys buried at the notorious Arthur G. Dozier School for Boys in the Panhandle.

The North Florida reform school in closed in 2011 after former students alleged decades of abuse and murder.
Host Matthew Peddie talks with Kimmerle about the process of finding the graves, the reactions of families whose sons’ bodies were found and the political and environmental challenges her team faced.
