What Does the Historic Settlement Won by Henrietta Lacks’s Family Mean for Others?

'In the Lacks case, the family’s lawyers argued that doctors’ failure to ask her permission to use her cancer cells reflected deep-seated racism then pervasive in human research. “The racial inequity which was so eloquently argued in the complaint 
 really I think carried the day,” Andrews says.'

immortal HeLa.

"She looks straight into the camera and smiles, hands on hips, dress suit neatly pressed, lips painted deep red. It's the late 1940s and she hasn't yet reached the age of thirty.
... if you could pile all HeLa cells ever grown onto a scale, they'd weigh more than 50 million metric tons — an inconceivable number, given that an individual cell weighs almost nothing."

@Sheril I love the book and I had my students in AP Bio read it. It was a very sad and tough read for me every year. Why did I block out how sad her childhood was everyyear?

I learnt something about medical history and the basis of cell research. It's also good to see the replacement of a symbol of a white oppressor with an important black figure in Roanoake, Virginia. bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada
