⚠️ Tuskegee – the experiment that shamed AmericaFrom 1932 to 1972, the U.S. government carried out the infamous Tuskegee Syphilis Study.The official goal was “to study the progression of syphilis in African American men.”But the truth was far darker:📂 Declassified documents and testimonies reveal: • 600 poor African American men were enrolled without true knowledge or consent. • Of the 399 infected with syphilis, they were deliberately denied treatment, even after penicillin was available. • Doctors observed their suffering for decades, letting many die. • Wives and children were indirectly infected as a result of this deception.The scandal only surfaced in 1972, exposing that the government knowingly sacrificed its own citizens.
