MODERATORS
I didn't even cover the after effects, such as when the US military bombed a Black town or secretly infected Blacks with Syphilis, these things being less than 100 years ago, to name a few.
The Tuskegee experiment was horrible, but the researchers didn’t infect those men with syphilis. They “just” didn’t inform them that they were infected, treat them, or encourage them to seek treatment.
