Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

and this was from a document about the program
Dr. Michael Blakey, a biological anthropologist at Howard University’s Cobb Laboratory, head the research on the skeletons found at the burial ground in New York City. Half of them were children, and many of these were infants under 6 months old. This evidence of high infant mortality tells researchers that the enslaved Africans at this site were kept in very, very poor conditions. Mark Mack and other scientists at Cobb Laboratory have been studying defects in muscle attachments and fractures on the remains of the buried slaves, which show that people were ”pressed to the very margins of human physical capacity.”
