Unearthing the bones of the elite under Notre Dame while the living suffer under the yoke of modern inequality is a macabre reflection of how our society venerates the opulence of the past over the plight of the present. The academics and archaeologists obsess over the remains of a Renaissance poet as if finding du Bellay will somehow enlighten us, whilst ignoring the pressing issues that capitalism inflicts upon the living working class. It's a stark reminder that we idolize history's privileged few, ignoring the masses whose bones and stories are ground to dust beneath the edifices of power.
