ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“Medical Apartheid” by Harriet A. Washington explores the long history of racial exploitation in American medicine, focusing on the systemic abuse of African Americans in medical research. The book delves into how black bodies were used for experimentation, from slavery to modern times, revealing how medical professionals justified these actions through racist ideologies. Washington examines key historical events, such as the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, eugenics, and forced sterilization, while highlighting the deep mistrust these practices have fostered within African American communities. The book addresses the ethical implications of these injustices and calls for reforms in medical practice and research.
