The subject of histories, films, rumors, and political slogans, it received an official federal apology from President Bill Clinton in a White House ceremony. Susan M. Reverby offers a comprehensive analysis of the notorious study of untreated syphilis, which took place in and around Tuskegee, Alabama, from the 1930's through the 1970's. The study involved hundreds of African American men, most of whom were told by doctors from the U.S. 410 0$aJohn Hope Franklin series in African American history and culture. 606 $aTuskegee Syphilis Study 606 $aHuman experimentation in medicine$zAlabama$zMacon County$xHistory 606 $aSyphilis$xResearch$zAlabama$zMacon County$xHistory 615 0$aTuskegee Syphilis Study. 615 0$aHuman experimentation in medicine$xHistory. 615 0$aSyphilis$xResearch$xHistory. 676 $a174.2/80976149 700 $aReverby$b Susan$0789703 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910965239103321 996 $aExamining Tuskegee$94407223 997 $aUNINA
