Is Destroying Archaeology for the Border Wall OK? TAS 329

Today we bring you three stories from the news. The first is about an overcrowded cemetery in Colorado and it brings into question other cemeteries that date back over 100 years and the accuracy of records.

Finally, we talk about the archaeology being destroyed by Trump’s border wall with Mexico.
