need blacks labor anymore, so they de- cided to create and implements various project to get rid of them or the exploit their labor and natural resources to the fullest.

TUSKEGEE SYPHILIS PROJECT: The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment


was a government program that was ran by the DHS (Department of Human Services) from 1932 – 1972. 399 Black men were intentionally injected with syphilis, without their knowledge, and were allowed to suffere and eventually die due to lack of treatment. The head nurse of the project, Eunice Rivers (a Black woman), along with Sydney Olansky, one of the head physicians in the program, willingly participated. This experiment was kept secret for
