THE TUSKEGEE EXPERIMENT: FORTY YEARS OF DELIBERATE HARM
Episode 112 | Historical Events
In this History episode we focus on the Tuskegee Study — the US Public Health Service program that enrolled 600 Black men in rural Alabama in 1932, told them they were being treated for bad blood, withheld penicillin after it became the standard cure in 1947, and continued for 40 years until a whistleblower went to the press.
Every researcher on this study had a medical degree. Every one had taken an oath to do no harm.
