"Alabama law requires every person in Tuscaloosa County to be X-rayed for #Tuberculosis between the ages of 13 and 50 and Blood tested for #Syphilis between the ages of 14 and 50."
They segregated blacks from whites, but they tested BOTH. And they frightened people by leading them to believe it was a law.

How many black people?#Tuskegee #Syphilis Study - At the clinic on campus for blacks (today called Tuskegee University), 399 men with syphilis were given fake treatments and were told they were receiving treatment, but in reality, they were not.
"facilities and staff of the Tuskegee Institute were involved" - the clinic on campus was used for this study.

I am surprised this university is still in business and people still want to go to school there.

On March 19, 1941, the U.S. War Department ordered the creation of the 99th Pursuit Squadron, better known as the Tuskegee Airmen. Their courage in the skies not only contributed to Allied victory, but also challenged stereotypes at home, paving the way for racial integration in the U.S. military and influencing the broader Civil Rights Movement.
"The Tuskegee Airmen: Return to Ramitelli" tells the inspiring story of America’s first Black military pilots. Learn how their service helped challenge segregation in the U.S. military and reshape what was possible for future generations with our classroom-ready discussion guide for grades 8-12 and adult/higher ed.

From 1941-1946, some 1,000 Black pilots were trained at #Tuskegee.
C. Alfred "Chief" Anderson earned his pilot's license in 1929 and became the first African American to receive a commercial pilot's certificate in 1932, and, subsequently, to make a #transcontinental flight.

“I’ll tell (Trump) to his face. No problem,” he said. “I’ll tell him, ‘You’re a racist,’ and see what he has to say about that. What can they do to me? Just kill me, that’s all.”

"The shooting is the latest case in which a 'machine gun conversion device' was found, something law officers around the nation have expressed grave concerns about. The proliferation of these types of weapons is made possible by small pieces of metal or plastic made with a 3D printer or ordered online."

@luckytran oh wow 😳😱
"Buxtun is revered as a hero to public health scholars and ethicists for his role in bringing to light the most notorious medical research scandal in U.S. history. Documents that #Buxtun provided to The Associated Press, and its subsequent investigation and reporting, led to a public outcry that ended the study in 1972.Forty years earlier, in 1932, federal scientists began studying 400 Black men in #Tuskegee, Alabama, who were infected with #syphilis. When antibiotics became available in the 1940s that could treat the disease, federal health officials ordered that the drugs be withheld. The study became an observation of how the disease ravaged the body over time."

➡️ HOLY SHIT: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuskegee_Syphilis_Study
"The #Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male"
A US Public Health Service (PHS) study, from 1932 until 1972, whose purpose was "to observe the effects of the disease when untreated, though by the end of the study medical advancements meant it was entirely treatable. The men were not informed of the nature of the experiment, and more than 100 died as a result"
