June 4, 1925: American academic Margaret Murray Washington died in Tuskegee, Alabama. One of ten children born to sharecroppers, she spent much of her time reading and quickly excelled in school, enrolling in Fisk University, where she completed the college preparatory course in five years and college in four. She became the principal of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, which later became Tuskegee University, and married Booker T. Washington in 1893. She also created the Tuskegee Woman's Club and merged local organizations with women clubs to help improve the values and liberation of womanhood in African-American women of the Jim Crow south.

#OnThisDay in 1968, students at the Tuskegee Institute barricaded the doors of Dorothy Hall during an annual meeting of the Board of Trustees, demanding a number of reforms, typed up in a document called: “General Philosophy: A Black University Concept.”
Governor Lurleen Wallace sent around 300 National Guardsmen to Tuskegee Institute. Thankfully, bloodshed was avoided.

DeSatan speaking tonight at Cradle of Aviation Museum by Mitchel Field in Nassau County NY, on the eve of his next phase to wipe #DEI from curriculums and history books. I find it disgusting this museum would host him as he removes books about #Tuskegee Airmen. Long Island is full of #TrumpHumpers. When we drove past, there were a small amount of pro-Trump protesters that do not want DeSantis here, countered by a smaller but growing amount of Dems. Town of Hempstead is historically DEI.
Last night, my 14yo and I watched #StarTrek #Voyager S5 E8 “Nothing Human,” which dealt with #MedicalEthics and experimentation on living subjects.
Today, I told him about the US’s #Tuskegee & #Guatemala Syphilis “studies.”
Why did the writers—who reference the ‘57 Chevy as Tom Paris’ favorite car—not mention these experiments in the episode?
#ST fans need to know that we have been the Cardassians, too.
That said, I wish #RobertPicardo was on Mastodon!

"This event will acknowledge the 50th anniversary of the end of the United States Public Health Service Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male at Tuskegee and Macon County, Alabama, 1932 -1972. The intention is to create a space for authentic, accurate storytelling and discussion regarding current and future opportunities for public health leaders at CDC and beyond to move from trust to trustworthiness."

@dangillmor Until mainstream media stops pretending that all #vaccinehesitant people are white, crunchy types with right-wing motives, there will keep being a problem. Historically, #bipoc populations as well as the imprisoned & poor have been targets for U.S. medical experiments. Look up #Tuskegee experiments but also #guatemala . Greater transparency among medical corporations with their data as well liability will improve trust. https://hekint.org/2019/04/26/the-forgotten-many-of-the-guatemalan-syphilis-experiments/
