I am from Alabama, and the state is very much still racist. I am called the black sheep of my family because I am not racist, homophobic, etc. I am about to graduate with my nursing degree and my fiance and I cannot wait to get out of this state.
Robyn Price I am also from alabama and while my whole family isn’t racist I do have racist family members. I remember going to one of my family members retirement party(who is racist) who had African American coworkers speak about how much they’ll miss them. And I just felt so sad for them because they had no idea that this person wasn’t even their friend. I’m grateful that my immediate family isn’t racist so I didn’t grow up with those same values instilled in me
And that's the problem When you see wrong you Say wrong‼️💯Alot of people have racist family members but won't say shit because it's FAMILY! But I'm that family member that would've set that retirement party on Fire I would've blasted whoever the family member was💯💯 I swear I speaks up for Black or white rite or wrong that's why history will repeat itself because people won't call folks on they bullshit so they'll stop‼️
So glad you’re talking about this! The amount of denial in recent generations that these sorts of nefarious, disgusting events occurred is unreal. And people still don’t believe it has an affect on Black people to this day.

@@mudflapsmom179 I don’t know if you’re aware….. but for black people the government has always had the maximum amount of control possible. And political party doesn’t matter - white supremacy is across the aisle and the world.
@Mia Smith hey, as a brown girl: don't stress yourself. Rule of thumb would be to treat poc like any other person. Being nice and polite with poc is a good thing, you're not being racist there. You're definitely overthinking a bit though 😁 Unless you go out of your way to purposely be rude to a poc, likely nobody will think you're racist. I also live in a very white bread country, where I know many people are somewhere between kind of racist and very racist, but until somebody is actively shitty to me or another poc for bullshit reasons, I don't usually assume they're racist. I know on the internet people are very specific about things sometimes, but in real life you usually can tell when somebody has good intentions (which i feel like you do), so don't worry too much
Herman Shaw was our neighbor...we live in Macon County...(pronounced May-con). He's the man hugging Clinton in the picture you showed. Herman was an amazing man and to the day he died, he always said he forgave the government. He never talked about this...it was too painful for him. I only learned about it from my Grandpa. They farmed together for years. Very well done. :-)
Phoenix Rose for being a leader in the western world America is still disgustingly backwards, it amazes me the racism, homophobia etc that persists in their society (along with many others) it’s inhumane
Shannon Robertson due to the society you live in, I can’t blame you of thinking the USA is still the leading country, but I’m sorry to write to you it hasn’t been a leader in a number of fields for some time now. The way people are treated by the government (i.e police, justice system, health insurance, working people laws) is just appalling.
This might be a weird video to say this but... Having your 'company' makes me feel so much better. Thank you for helping us ALL cope during this difficult time with informative videos xo
I’ve been waiting for you to cover this one for so long Georgia! The way you cover history in such brutal honesty with profound respect to those effected is astonishing.
You have SUCH a good head on your shoulders, Georgia. I always feel a sort of motherly pride while watching your videos (I'm a smidge older than you, hehe). Great video, as always.
Thank you for speaking on this, words cannot express how these men were violated yet people act as if it’s the everyday norm. Sadly racism existed then and still does today yet God created everyone as equal period yet some small minded people will never understand this.
You are so eloquent and easy to follow while giving a lot of information. When I watch a long video of yours it is so easy to stay focused and remember everything afterwards. Not only entertaining, but very educational. And you have great hair!!
Ooh I've always found this so interesting. It's just so shocking. What a cruel wicked experiment. I'm in my thirties but my parents are 60. My dad told me about this experiment. I was honestly disgusted.
I've watched you a couple of years now and I've really noticed how much your videos have improved. Always enjoyed them and Your research has always been spot on but you really present the information better now I feel. More clear and confident. :)
Practice makes perfect. It's pretty much the same with most UA-cam channels that present themselves in this format to us.. They have gotten better, confident and more professional over time. 😁
Thank you so much for talking about this and reinforcing how abhorrent it all was and talking about why POC have an immense distrust for doctors. Another similar-ish story is that of Henrietta Lacks. Also, as a historian of science and a scientist, I appreciate this from those perspectives as well :)
I'm a 27-year-old black man from Alabama and my grandad would not go to the doctors to save his ass. I didn't understand his reasoning until high school.
HELL YES CONTENT CREATOR. Georgia you are on fire!! I finished all your old videos so now I patiently wait your new uploads and you never keep me waiting long. Love these history uploads as well, was never good at history in school as Im very much a visual learner. You do such a fantastic job making it easy to follow along. ❤
Never heard of this before (maybe bc I'm Canadian? 🤷♀️). It's enraging and heartbreaking that this happened 😡💔 Absolutely disgusting. With that said, thank you Georgia for talking about it.
Trust me, it's not known here in the U.S. either unless you're black. Which sickens me. The whole United States should know about these horrific atrocities against these innocent people. We should have been taught this.. it should be in our history books. But it's not, just like so many other atrocities against black people. I'm slowly educating myself but why didn't I know before??
this case always gets me, the first time I heard about this was last year (1st year of uni) and its so disgusting to see how much their bodies were exploited and disregarded :(((
Thank you Georgia, for keeping me sane through these crazy times, while also teaching me things that I would never have known otherwise. ♥ History is so important. Those who do not know from where they came (as a culture/society) do not know where they are heading. And those who know not their history are doomed to repeat it, as the saying goes.
Thank you so much for this video Georgia! I was watching it downstairs this morning while my dad did a bit of work and he found it so interesting he ended up watching it with me. His final comment was “wow I really liked her!” Definitely one of my faves of yours! x
I do't know if this is in your wheelhouse of topics, but I think the story of Corporal Wojtek of WWII is a really nice one that people need to hear about.
You are such a good storyteller. I love your history series. As an American, I cracked up when you talked about the "superiority of the American race". You are right, it is such an American attitude. And so ridiculous, lol. I feel like we slammed the door shut forever after on any claim to anything remotely close to superiority when we elected Trump. The Tuskegee experiment needs to be talked about and I am glad you covered it. There are still many, many people here in the States who claim that it never happened. Racism is unfortunately very alive and well among the "superior American race". God, how do people put up with we Americans, lol. So embarrassingly arrogant.
I live about 45 minutes away from Tuskegee and I’m so grateful that this awful case was taught to me and my peers during our history classes in both high school and college because awareness is needed! this was horrific and may these souls rest in peace ❤️ thank you for bringing more awareness to it, lovely!
Binged watched all your latest videos today and damn they are just fantastic. I love all the series you do & your story telling, articulation & research upon what you discuss is always so great and detailed. Thank you 😊
Just want to let you know I think you did a phenomenal job on this video! I hope your outspoken and transparent ways inspire more content creators to speak out on sensitive subjects and the brutal history of our world. I'm here for the truth ☺
I learned a lot about syphilis in my history of public health and medicine class (the professor I had for that class specializes in the history of syphilis, if you can believe it) and I couldn't believe that anyone allowed this experiment to happen. I'm also baffled by the fact that some aristocratic people (mainly men) in the 1600s and 1700s viewed syphilis as a "badge of honor" and congratulated each other when they got it. It seems like syphilis was not taken very seriously in the past even though it had really terrible consequences. Most people tried to cover it up.
To say medical ethics have changed since then is an understatement. If you are withholding a treatment it can only be done when the participants know in advance that they have a 50/50 chance of being in the control OR treatment group. Furthermore, if a treatment is known to be very effective it cannot be withheld from the participants. This is why studies are halted early sometimes as it is considered completely unethical to withhold an effective treatment. Also, participants are no longer known as subjects, since they are considered to play an active part in the research. Finally, ethics committees can go to the other side and be extraordinarily pedantic. When you first send your research proposal in, they send it back after making amendments, and then make you re-submit over and over until they are satisfied. And these amendments can seriously be as small as them asking you to change grammar on your study advertisement. 😁Times have changed so much! Great video by the way.
Very well done. As a black American, thank you! Your heart and mind are in the right place. You young people are so much more conscious, spiritual and loving than your ancestors, we’re counting on you to change the world..elevate humanity! 👏🏽🌹👏🏽🥰
It makes sense why people don't trust doctors. If I found out that I was involved in a medical study without my consent I would be very upset! Great job shining light on this issue (I haven't finished the video yet but I know you did amazing as always)
Wow! You are an unusual person. I wouldn't expect someone who looks like you to go into these deep, dark and necessary investigations into Humanity. Kudos to you,way to go! Keep being your wonderful self!! We need to be aware of ourselves in the world around us.
I love your history series! Please look into the history of the Cragfont Mansion in Castalian Springs, Tn. I used to live 3 houses down from the historic mansion and didn’t know it’s history before I purchased it. Had I known, I would not have purchased the home!
AWESOME video!! Tremendous job as usual. Case suggestion: have you ever heard of the Halifax Explosion? It was an accident that involved some liability by the parties involved, that flattened a very large part of Halifax. The worlds response to it is one of the reasons Halifax sends a Christmas tree to New York city every year for Rockefeller center. Check out the book "Too Many to Mourn" by James and Rowena Mahar. I went on a tour of Halifax years ago and was told about the explosion at the beginning of the 20th century. I picked up the book after. It would make an incredible video for your history series. Thanks again for your excellent content and all your efforts!
At least your neighbour doesn't scream and swear and smash things and slam doors soooo loud that all your shampoo/shower products vibrate off their shelves and fall into the tub :/ Last night she literally through something large and made of glass at a wall and smashed and banged around her apartment for hours. Earlier this week she made such a loud bang that my mirror fell off the wall & broke. I had to sleep at the uni for a few nights just to study for finals and such. Haha sorry off topic - just needed a vent :( Great, informative video As always! I'm always suggesting your channel to people ❤🧡💛
Non blacks saying we have adopted a victim mentality while simultaneously ignoring the chronic sabotage we continue to endure is repulsive. Our issues didn't end with slavery. The Fair Housing Act of 1968, Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 here are a couple of examples of more recent sabotage.
I cannot believe I’ve never heard of this in my 32 years! Sadly I’m not shocked as to how cruel humans can be to each other! Incredibly sad piece of history!
I’m from Alabama, Tuskegee is a beautiful area of the state. It’s very sad that this happened in this state. It has so much natural beauty but ugly ugly politics.
This reminds me a little bit of the strange case of Henrietta Lacks (a poor African American lady) She went to get cancer treatment and the doctors found she had some strange anomaly in her cells where they reproduced like mad. But instead of the doctors telling her all this they hid it from her and came up with a ruse for her to have to keep coming in so the doctors could secretly experiment on her. She died penniless and totally unaware that her body’s anomaly would help to become one of the biggest medical advances in recent history. Scientists made millions off of her body and her kids didn’t even have the money to give her a proper burial. I was literally sick reading the book about her and how she was taken advantage of by the medical staff.
Puri Right? The way they used her was just disgusting, but the other side to that is that this woman’s genes have helped countless cancer patients around the world. She (unknowingly) has saved SO many lives, it just sucks she and her family were never given the respect and credit they deserved.
Can attest, spinal taps are HORRIBLE. I already felt CRUSHED at learning more about this. To have to go through THAT as well as be so sick... it hurts my heart so much. Then the spinal HEADACHES that come, too... those poor people...
You always have such diverse content on your channel. Thank you for that. Many channels like this have no diversity and I've never understood why. I had never heard of this before watching your video a month ago and I went and did some research on my own afterwards. So many people are now talking about this as something millions of people have never even heard of. I'm horrified and sickened that so much of history on black people has just been looked over. We weren't taught any of this. No one spoke of it. I didn't even know about Tulsa until yesterday.
An uplifting historical story I'd love for you to cover is the "Lesbians and gays support the miners" story (most people heard of it after the film Pride in 2014). It would tie in great following your AIDs crisis video. It's a really great story about unity between marginalised groups. Would also love to hear your take on Thatcher's Britain which is another reason I'd love you to cover this topic! x
Georgia you are an amazing voice for the downtrodden members of our society. Keep making these awesome history videos. You remind me of all my 4 daughters! My eldest was born in '95. My girls are very vocal in their support of people who are mistreated because of their race or gender, etc. You are one of my favourite Utubers! 😊💜
Loved this episode. As a new subscriber, I dont you if you have done a episode on Helen Duncan? She was a medium and was the last person to be jailed under the witchcraft act. This happened during WW2. very interesting.
i hope your neighbours don’t watch your videos 😂 super interesting video though, refreshing to see something different across the true crime youtubers i watch!
In love with your history series ♡ Suggestion: cover Rosa Parks for something 'uplifting'. She was fierce, determined and a total badass! Also little is known about her work with black sexual assault victims, would love to see her full story covered. Little fact: she was born in Tuskegee
think you should cover the Windrush Generation. Such an important topic here in the UK, but no one speaks about it in detail or from an educational and honest stand point. I think you'd be great at highlighting all of the details and injustices that people are still facing today!
In Canada as far as the 90's they had Canada's version of the FBI folllowing around gay people who worked in polotics. Like just being gay was a crime. ( it was legalised in 1969)
A couple of other videos I'd like to see would be the Triangle Shirt Factory disaster and an expose of James Marion Sims, who experimented with gynecological surgery on African American women without anaesthesia (!). A more positive history subject would be the history of Islamic medicine.
This case is actually bonkers- that they could do this to people for so long, with no care for their health is disgusting. People should’ve gone to jail.
This experiment is something I've heard about my whole life especially because I live in the neighboring state. Every time I hear about it my mind can't seem to comprehend how this was allowed to happen. Horrible horrible racist treatment of men who were doing more good in society than bad.
I am from Alabama, and the state is very much still racist. I am called the black sheep of my family because I am not racist, homophobic, etc. I am about to graduate with my nursing degree and my fiance and I cannot wait to get out of this state.

Great, informative video As always! I'm always suggesting your channel to people ❤🧡💛
Love your channel
Non blacks saying we have adopted a victim mentality while simultaneously ignoring the chronic sabotage we continue to endure is repulsive. Our issues didn't end with slavery. The Fair Housing Act of 1968, Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 here are a couple of examples of more recent sabotage.
I cannot believe I’ve never heard of this in my 32 years! Sadly I’m not shocked as to how cruel humans can be to each other! Incredibly sad piece of history!
@THEwhimsical1 you’re right, and it’s wrong!!!
Your videos are amazing !! They’re so educational and interesting ✨
love your history series !!!!
I’m from Alabama, Tuskegee is a beautiful area of the state. It’s very sad that this happened in this state. It has so much natural beauty but ugly ugly politics.
I love this type of videos SOOO much!!!! 👍👍👍👍
I’d never heard of this but it was so interesting! I can’t believe this was allowed, it blows my mind xx
Another great video!
Thank you, great video!!
god i love your videos! they are always so profound and well researched ! good work!!
This reminds me a little bit of the strange case of Henrietta Lacks (a poor African American lady) She went to get cancer treatment and the doctors found she had some strange anomaly in her cells where they reproduced like mad. But instead of the doctors telling her all this they hid it from her and came up with a ruse for her to have to keep coming in so the doctors could secretly experiment on her. She died penniless and totally unaware that her body’s anomaly would help to become one of the biggest medical advances in recent history. Scientists made millions off of her body and her kids didn’t even have the money to give her a proper burial. I was literally sick reading the book about her and how she was taken advantage of by the medical staff.
what the fuck??? i just googled her and i'm speechless
Puri Right? The way they used her was just disgusting, but the other side to that is that this woman’s genes have helped countless cancer patients around the world. She (unknowingly) has saved SO many lives, it just sucks she and her family were never given the respect and credit they deserved.
Can attest, spinal taps are HORRIBLE. I already felt CRUSHED at learning more about this. To have to go through THAT as well as be so sick... it hurts my heart so much. Then the spinal HEADACHES that come, too... those poor people...
I’d like to hear what you think about the three identical strangers. You can find it on Netflix. Sounds like early studies of cloning to me xxx
They actually cloned a sheep too
I love your history series so much queen 🖤
Good job🎉
You always have such diverse content on your channel. Thank you for that. Many channels like this have no diversity and I've never understood why. I had never heard of this before watching your video a month ago and I went and did some research on my own afterwards. So many people are now talking about this as something millions of people have never even heard of. I'm horrified and sickened that so much of history on black people has just been looked over. We weren't taught any of this. No one spoke of it. I didn't even know about Tulsa until yesterday.
An uplifting historical story I'd love for you to cover is the "Lesbians and gays support the miners" story (most people heard of it after the film Pride in 2014). It would tie in great following your AIDs crisis video. It's a really great story about unity between marginalised groups. Would also love to hear your take on Thatcher's Britain which is another reason I'd love you to cover this topic! x
Yesssssssssssssss! Love you!
Love this series, love you georgia💛💛💛
Super early! Thanks for the great content pretty lady 😊
Can you please do the 1916 rising in Ireland. It’s so interesting 😘🥰🥰🥰🥰
I'd love it if you did a video on the Halifax Explosion
So excited too watch, never even heard of this experiment before. It sounds horrid so far!
Ooo didn’t expect a video wooooo
I would love a video on the Mexican Soldaderas
The white mans distruction is unmatched
Love this series ❤️
Super freaking upsetting. Thank you for covering this topic. Too few people know about it. Messed up doesn't even cover it...
The part that makes me most angry is that none of the medical personnel were tried for any crimes when they knowingly committed murder.
Georgia you are an amazing voice for the downtrodden members of our society. Keep making these awesome history videos. You remind me of all my 4 daughters! My eldest was born in '95. My girls are very vocal in their support of people who are mistreated because of their race or gender, etc. You are one of my favourite Utubers! 😊💜
Loved this episode. As a new subscriber, I dont you if you have done a episode on Helen Duncan? She was a medium and was the last person to be jailed under the witchcraft act. This happened during WW2. very interesting.
Wow just wow 😔
Was there anyone that tried to warn them about the syphilis experiment before or during the time they were being infected?
I grew up in the states and didn’t learn about this until I went to university. Are we shocked? Are we?
you should create a discord server, discord is basically a chat app where you create a server/group for people to chat in, it’d be fun!
i hope your neighbours don’t watch your videos 😂 super interesting video though, refreshing to see something different across the true crime youtubers i watch!
I hope they do and shut up 😂 thank you!
I don’t know if it’s lighter, but I would love to hear you cover Juan & Eva Peron!
In love with your history series ♡
Suggestion: cover Rosa Parks for something 'uplifting'. She was fierce, determined and a total badass! Also little is known about her work with black sexual assault victims, would love to see her full story covered. Little fact: she was born in Tuskegee
think you should cover the Windrush Generation. Such an important topic here in the UK, but no one speaks about it in detail or from an educational and honest stand point. I think you'd be great at highlighting all of the details and injustices that people are still facing today!
can you talk about the Lavender Scare of the 1950s? it’s lgbt+ history
In Canada as far as the 90's they had Canada's version of the FBI folllowing around gay people who worked in polotics. Like just being gay was a crime. ( it was legalised in 1969)
Never Heard about this. So interesting. In Sweden we have "Vipeholmsexperimentet". Not as bad(?) but REALLY sad.
Hey!
A couple of other videos I'd like to see would be the Triangle Shirt Factory disaster and an expose of James Marion Sims, who experimented with gynecological surgery on African American women without anaesthesia (!). A more positive history subject would be the history of Islamic medicine.
This case is actually bonkers- that they could do this to people for so long, with no care for their health is disgusting.
People should’ve gone to jail.
This experiment is something I've heard about my whole life especially because I live in the neighboring state. Every time I hear about it my mind can't seem to comprehend how this was allowed to happen. Horrible horrible racist treatment of men who were doing more good in society than bad.
Georgia & coffee on my deck is a great break from the craziness! Stay safe all. ❤️🇨🇦
