“Yejide don't have the heart to tell him that is not only headstones that make a place a burial ground. Under the Green, under fancy restaurants that used to be plantation houses, under the government buildlings, under the housing complexes, under the shopping malls, is layers and layers of dead — unknown, unnamed, unclaimed.
