Description
This the first podcast in a series of two podcasts on unethical treatment of Black people in medicine. In this podcast, we share about the horrific Tuskegee syphilis experiment where Black men who had syphilis were recruited and denied treatment for their disease. We discuss the original goals of the experiment, how the 40-year long experiment was brought to the public's eye, and how clinical trials changed after this unethical horror.
