thechronicleofshe:sephezade:thereasonforthewordbitch:blackourstory:You’ve heard about it before but… here it is. In your face. It was REAL. Black people don’t make this stuff up. white ppl are the devilNever forget this fuckery.If you don’t know what this is, its The Tuskegee Experiment.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuskegee_syphilis_experiment “An infamous clinical study conducted between 1932 and 1972 by the U.S. Public Health Service. The purpose of this study was to observe the natural progression of untreated syphilis in rural African-American men in Alabama under the guise of receiving free health care from the United States government.”“ The study was continued without informing the men they would never be treated. None of the men infected were ever told they had the disease, and none were treated with penicillin even after the antibiotic became proven for the treatment of syphilis.”The Tuskegee Syphilis Study, cited as “arguably the most infamous biomedical research study in U.S. history"led to the 1979 Belmont Report and the establishment of the Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP). It also led to federal laws and regulations requiring Institutional Review Boards for the protection of human subjects in studies involving them. -- source link
