Hey y’all, had to comment on this before I even watched: My dad was born in this very hospital. During these experiments. The weekend he was born, his mother (a very pregnant black woman) drove all around Montgomery Alabama in active labor and was turned away by every hospital and clinic. The colored hospital, she was told, was in Tuskegee. So off she drove and the same time she arrived, a hurricane came with her. So that weekend Tuskegee faced floods and torrential rain. They told my grandparents to take my dad home while they focused on repairs, and it wasn’t until decades later did we learn what he was spared from. Every time I see the rain I think of how it saved my dad and in turn, my entire lineage. A lot of people like to say the harms of slavery, institutional racism, and segregation were years ago. But no, my boomer dad is still walking around wearing socks at the grocery store and talking to scores of people who have no idea the mortal danger my dad was in just for being born black. And that’s just one instance. There are many harms in life that disproportionately affect some more than others.
I’m so glad your grandparents/dad got out of there safely. I have to ask what you meant about him walking around with socks on means? I’m aware people wear socks, but wanted to know if it meant something else.
@@hillarybaker2349 oh no i was making a joke about how “boomer” and innocent my dad seems, not knowing how the deep dark stains of segregation so closely threatened his life. I hear all the time “the harms of slavery were forever ago” no my dad is still here. My dad is walking around, and doesnt have to look like an “angry black man” or a “ghetto person” to have suffered from segregation. Its a completely different argument and might be too deep for a youtube comment section lol (I apologize) but there is a belief out there that if you look white dress white talk white, you’re “safe”.
As a black woman, thank you for sharing this story! There is a lot of history out of Tuskegee, but the Tuskegee Experiment is definitely dark history. This experiment, as well as Henrietta Lacks’ story, is one of the MANY reasons Black Americans historically have a grave distrust of the medical system.
I am praying that Mrs Lacks family wins the lawsuits against those pharma companies! They definitely deserve the profits from her cells! PS I'm a white lady who attended an HBCU in Arkansas so I took Black History and humanities.
I’ve read a book about Henrietta Lacks. Just disgusting they way she and her family were and are treated. Trust the doctors and government they say… F that!!
One of my former students shared a Dark History story on her social media and wrote: My history teacher [me] used to tell us history was so much worse than she could tell us. Thank you, Bailey for telling the parts we can't and some teachers ignore.
@@SuperTruthful the point is, there are things teachers can't teach in school that would be very beneficial for students to know in order to be more cautious of flaws in the system. Sure, you can find things online. But how would they know to look or where to start? They [the government] hide things in plain sight so they can technically say "We already told you this"
I love how socially responsible Bailey is. She’s honest and careful with her story telling, and calls out the BS that happens. Keep bring these injustices to light girl! We appreciate you!
As someone whose family of from and still lives in Tuskegee, I really appreciate this video. My father would tell me stories from the town because he knew I wouldn’t have been taught it in school
This still happens today. In med school in most states, students are taught that black people's liver reacts differently and they have a higher tolerance, leading to more black people deaths in medicine. The US government needs to be held accountable as with the Nuremberg trials for the German Nazis (American Nazis were never held accountable). The idea of America is great, but we have a long way to go and a lot of work. I hope with more of this coming out people will realize how much more work needs to be put in.
@SkyCop Wife so do tell us what the "truth" actually is? Sounds to me like someone has a boot shoved so far in their mouth they can't stand the taste of the actual truth about the atrocities our government has committed against its citizens 🧐🤥
We studied this in pre-med and med school. This is one of the reasons why we have a lot of requirements for our research papers and we have to go through multiple ethical boards, especially when it involves human subjects. Also-people should really just be kind to other people. Sometimes I wonder why it’s so hard for others to just be decent human beings.
@@Brodie3K 🧐 really??? No shot no work... no shot no school... no shot no eating out... no shot no fly...no shot no travel. Wow, what universe are you in... let me in?? Wake up.. they already have green cards in Europe. Basically let’s just bend over already!!! Right!??
@@irissoniachavez right, but no one is forcing you to get it. Just because most of society wants you to have it, doesn't mean people are forcing you. People just don't want to deal with you.
It's absolutely horrific! I'm glad someone has mentioned this. POC women (Puerto Rican, Indigenous, and Black/African-Americans come to mind first) have been treated as experimental scientific bodies with no regard for their life or time quite a bit in American history.
This story reminds me of The “father of modern gynecology” James Marion Sims. This monster experimented on enslaved people without anesthesia. You can find many statues and hospitals in his honor.
This story reminds me a bit of how Latina women back in the 60s-70s were involuntarily sterilized in Los Angeles and had no idea of this until whistleblowers that worked at the hospitals shed light to it. I hardly ever hear anyone talk about it. I’m Mexican and even some within our community have no idea this happened not so long ago. It’d be cool if Bailey did a video about it.
I was waiting on this one. What baffles me is how these "doctors" didnt lose their licenses. They took oaths when they became medical doctors, but for the price of $37,500 they got away with it 🙄
Thank you Bailey for discussing this topic on Dark History. These horrendous tests (which is still) affecting the Black Community to this day. A lot of us are very skeptical about medical practices. Thank you again.
@I'm Baaaaack! did you know that in 1964 there was a political realignment? The "left" used to be the "right" (in layman's terms). Your comment just shows that racism is ingrained into our system and still affects our citizens today. know your history& Educate yourself before you make a fool of yourself. ✌🏼
@I'm Baaaaack! actually... it was Albert Pike, high ranking general of the freemasons, student of the master satanist Alistair Crowley, that founded the kkk
@@breezybee3774 babe the dems did form the kkk and the parties switched once welfare hit the streets black and poor/ working people used to rep. and now here we are back to switching dems are rich and not at all into the working class
Bailey, an episode about Henrietta Lacks would be really great. So many people have no idea who she was and how she unknowingly contributed to medicine and science by having her cancer cells stolen by doctors without her consent.
Thank you! Lol. I am allergic to Penicillin and the first thing I did after this episode was google alternative medications. PSA: Doxycycline also treats Syphilis!
Thanks I enjoy your videos. I like how you are very candid about our history. Seen a few videos and have learn a lot. I was appalled to hear about this, treating human beings worse than animals. Man dominating man in the most vile way. It’s disturbing that that’s the way of the world.
Same. My grandmother is a doctor here and I had to ask her about this. She knew people personally. I love Alabama but our state definitely has DARK HISTORY 😕
I have a whole book [medical apartheid] on all the experiments done on people of color back in the day. Its nice that you're bringing this to life. In addition, my grandfather was a Tuskegee airman. This episode really hit home. Thanks Bailey!! 💜
I'm a big fan of all your MMM, but I'm living for how Dark History is just leaning all the way in on all these awful, untalked about events. Please please PLEASE emphasize how recent these things are! People like to think this history is antiquated and no longer relevant, but we still face the effects TODAY. Love you so much Bailey!
Learned about this in 2011 in high school (11th grade) during our college health class. Our professor was black and she made sure we covered the Tuskegee experiments. I was horrified and saddened. I thank our professor for teaching us the reality and cruelty black people have endured. THiS IS IMPORTANT and should be taught in schools.
And to think I graduated in 2005 in an all white school district literally 4 black kids in school then more now and they still to this day are fighting this type of education smh
As a lifelong, born and raised resident of Alabama, I truly appreciate you covering this story. I didn’t even know abt this experiment until I was grown and in college 20miles away from Tuskegee University. Thanks for using your platform to spread real truth.
So I’m in nursing school and I just got home from clinical. I was talking to a patient today, and you’ll never believe where he works. He said “you ever heard of DuPont?” OH BOY, HAVE I!
"What is your reason for living today?" The answer is clearly Bailey exposing the corruption within the government all while being a straight goddess about it.
Thank you for saying the obvious out loud. I was brainwashed into thinking America was a pillar of morality as a child. I’ve been sensitive to injustices my whole life as an Asian person. It never goes away as long as some people want all the power.
Still petitioning for our girl Joan Crowford to get outfits for the videos (hats, bow ties, capes, etc.). Our girl is a fashion Raven (see what I did there?).
My haters throw rocks at me and IT hurts. I hope they don't throw The Rock at me because I like him as an actor. GAGAGAGAGA!!! I am funny!!! I am the funniest UA-camr EVAH! Please agree, dear lqtiw
As a Tuskegee alumni you made my heart happy. Whenever I tell people about this they look at me in disbelief. It’s crazy that the Tuskegee Syphilis Experience isn’t covered in many schools.
why would they want this and other stories told about what they've done to the AA community...they don't want the truth told about their evil deeds. smh
I just have to say this: I watch a lot of UA-cam and I cannot stand ad breaks, but girl I could listen to JUST your ad breaks bc you’re just so real whenever you talk and you feel so easy to connect with. I just love you. That’s all🥺❤️
As a public health professional, I learned about this case in college. It really should be more public so more folks know about the racism in healthcare. The Tuskegee Syphillis Experiment till this day remains in public health history as one of the first systematic AND deliberate acts of racism. Bailey, if you think this is ridiculous you should look into Henrietta Lacks’ HeLa cells. It’s equally infuriating!!
Honestly, I think the Tuskegee Experiment was WAY more sociopathic than the Henrietta Lacks incident. Ms. Lacks received diagnosis and treatment for her disease. It’s just that the lab used her cells for experiments after performing her biopsy. The lab provided those cells free to all researchers at that time. It was later on that commercial entities got the free cells then established their own cell lines that they sold for profit. Ms. Lacks was deceased by the time anyone profited from her cells. The gentlemen in the Tuskegee experiment were not told their diagnosis and not treated. Many of them died of the disease. Many had permanent disability if they survived. They passed the disease on to wives and children and many of them died or were disabled for life. This is in contrast to Ms Lacks who got the best care available at the time. In her case, the ethical dilemma is whether her surviving family is entitled to proceeds from sales of the cell line derived from her original cancer. These days, there are consent forms and when we agree that our tissue may be used in research, we sign off ownership of that tissue to the researchers.
@@d.froggiez369 What are you even talking about? If YOU had an education, then you'd be able to give examples. Plus you aren't even using the word: "whitewashed" correctly, so stick with the children because you have NOTHING to offer adults. Finally, I don't think that you replied to the right comment. Now Go Away.
Look into the summer Wells case and if you do I can give you links to go into that are live cast where you can actually get real information and also not to mention the Discovery channel has already put this out and there's no national news on it and it's only 4 months old maybe 5 months and she is from Tennessee
We learned about this in psychology in university and it portrays how experiments are unethical because of the various methods of deceptions that were used. I am so happy that you highlighted this ❤
I think the work you do is really important. You start conversations on hard subjects. I appreciate you and everyone that helps put your content out into the world.
I would love to see you cover the dark history of Australia and the widespread mistreatment and discrimination the indigenous people had gone through after the colonisers invaded. It’s swept under the rug to keep Australia’s squeaky clean image. A lot has improved since then but it’s a VERY dark history that isn’t taught in depth in Australian schools.
I would love to hear about this! I substitute taught for a history teacher and was reminded that British/Irish prisoners were sent to the country around the 1800s. As an adult I realized how effed up that was to the indigenous people
Yes. @Bailey Sarian, not sure if you’ve covered this yet, but this story definitely needs to be told!! (Especially since they’ve turned a prison with a *horrific* history into a _freakin spa retreat!!!_) Ty doll!!
@kphillips9472 Definitely needs to be done! My mom (in Oregon, US) would have her students (5th grade) watch "Rabbit-Proof Fence". She made sure her students were exposed to different lives and cultures.
The stolen generation. I've been trying to find ways to request she does this . Indigenous Australian here Bailey, please tell our ancestors horrific story! It's sad most of the world has no idea. . PS - my daughter's account hence the ridiculous name and pic 😅
You guys need to see “Red Tails” and “Miss Evers’ Boys.” They’re both about the Tuskegee Experiment. Also, see “The Immortal Life Of Henrietta Lacks.” I never heard about the residential schools before so I’m going to look into that. Thanks Bailey, you are a Godsend!! 🖤🖤🖤
This reminds me a lot of Henrietta Lacks. Bailey you should totally look into her case and how she’s the reason we have HeLa cells. “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks” is such an interesting book, definitely worth the read. There’s some problems with the author of it but it gives great insight on Henrietta and what she contributed to science without her consent.
Her family was never paid a cent for her tissue and recently her family filed a lawsuit to get money. The government also wanted to have her family for a study but they refused. Thank Goodness.
Bailey: "they're freaking noses would fall off their face! do you understand?" Me: "....sooo did Voldemort have Syphilis?? I feel like that explains so much "
The government has done so many things to the black community over the years since slavery. Some examples being the prevention of economic growth, education and the systematic breakdown of the family. This was extremely disgusting & despicable.
Look into what they did to women in Puerto Rico for the birth control pill, its sick. What about what the Germans did to the jews putting them through torture like blood transfusions.
why is so much of history just “black people minding their business and then RACISM” 😞. Thank you for continuing to tell the stories of so many marginalized groups and the brutalities they’ve faced.
I love the story of how you got to be so close with Saint, and every story you tell us where you continue to be surprised by him🥺🥺💜💜 so precious. Hes such a gentle giant🤩🥰
I first learned about this experiment in college when we discussed experiments on humans before researchers had any ethical requirements. Researchers did some really f***ed up s***. This one really takes the cake with how awful it is, how many people were/are harmed, and how long lasting the impact has been. And how wide reaching the impact has been. Ugh.
THEY STILL DO THIS STUFF if you think they don't start ny looking into Fauci and the experiments he performed on children, aids. In the 80s orphans mostly. Then look at the current jab we are all an experiment
Bailey!!!! Talk about the San Francisco Germ Experiment! Side note: I absolutely love you. I look forward to your videos every week. They help me relax after a stressful day!! Much love!
I learned of this awful "experiment" when I was in medical assistant school. I really hoped it wasn't true, but sadly it is. There was one guy who actually had syphilis, everyone knew him in the area I honestly goget his name but he was ALWAYS dancing. Wherever this guy went he was dancing. Well his syphilis had advanced so much that it actually ate away his brain and he acted like he had alzhiemer's cause he no longer had his fully functioning brain. It was extremely sad to see AMYONE treated this way. And they really knew what was wrong with these people... AND STILL DID NOTHING to help cure them. I'm so glad that Bailey covered this!
*To be clear:* The information reguarding "medical" and/or "biological" differences in BIPOC is STILL in current medical texts..being taught to current medical students and professionals. It may not be presented as absurdly or blatantly as they used to be, but they're still there.
Because the differences are real? As an Asian, my lungs are smaller and my eye pressure is higher than all other races. Sickle Cell Anemia is only found in Black people, is this what you mean?
@@LetsPatchItUp my sister is full on white and has sickle cell anemia... not just blacks get it. Anyone with bone marrow can have sickle cell anemia thats just like saying only white people get skin cancer not true...
@@shaylynnstanhope6439 wow I've been blind sided, my family told me only African Americans or Africans could have sickle cell. Thank you for sharing that. I also just learned several years ago that Caucasian people can also be albino, when I was taught only black people could.
Another great Bailey Sarian vid (as usual) AND its a topic im familiar with??! Whenever I try to explain why (some) African Americans are weary about the medical system I bring up this story and people NEVER believe me (I'm in Europe). I'm so glad Bailey is sharing it because it's honestly appalling how recently this was happening and yet people don't know about it!! :(
Thank you for trying to spread awareness/educate, even though you're in a different country. Many would say things like "why would you, it doesnt even affect you" but they dont realize that racism is a widespread wave that affects everyone (even the privileged, if you think about it. Just differently) xo
Yes! Most Black people know about many atrocious acts of cruelty and destruction here in America that no other race seems to believe or recognize. White people believe all resentment stems from slavery but it's so much more.
Just FYI, if you or someone you care about has syphilis and is allergic to penicillin, doxycycline and/or tetracycline are also used to treat it. I’m not a doctor but just looked up what can be used in the event one is allergic to penicillin. Thank you Bailey for sharing how disgusting and embarrassing our country is! You make it enjoyable to learn about.
Thank you Bailey for covering this tragic part of American HIStory. I am 64 yrs old and one positive thing that my mother did was give us lessons on "Black" American history and this was the one that I render the most. As a side note: this nefarious, demented "study" is why a lot of Blacks do not Trust the Medical field; thus the lower rates of blacks taking treatment encouraged by the government enmass.
It’s a shame when a country that could be so freaking heroic chooses to be the corrupt bully of the planet instead. Still, The USA is also full of excellent people like you Bailey ❤️
Hi Bailey, I just found out I have covid and I’m hospitalized and your videos are the only thing that’s getting me through, thank you. You have no idea how much it relaxes me during this stressful and painful time
I legit hope you're keeping a scrapbook of your dark history stories in 'the book' like people's comments, research notes,or products you used for your look that day! Thanks for being awesome Bailey, I listen to your Dark History and M.M.M. at work my coworkers tell me I'm a strange one but you keep me motivated! (I am a new follower so I've been listening in to ALL the videos).
My grandpa was apart of this experiment in Alabama but he tells this story differently,he says that he remembers they were giving out vaccines and he took this vaccine, him and others and that’s how they contacted syphilis. Of course I wasn’t there so I can’t be the judge but I would love if you could research that part a little more because this is the reason why a lot of older African Americans don’t like vaccines.
Yes, they were told it was a v@ccine and they required their 'vitamins' at follow up appointments but they were placebos and basically just being watched as they died. They fooled the people just like with this jab.
I think that if they had proof that the gentlemen in the Tuskegee Experiment were injected with syphilis, it would have been publicized. But there’s no proof and the sociopaths who thought up and performed this experiment are long dead. How did your grandfather know that that was what happened to him? Did he get a horrible sore (chancre) at the injection site?
@@valeriejojola3609 Idk I think there's a pretty big difference between a lack of informed consent and lack of treatment in the Tuskegee experiments and the government going out of its way to recommend a vaccine to prevent illness. This history is definitely relevant in understanding why there is distrust in the government and the medical community generally, especially for Black folks and other people of color. But not the same story at all.
The American dream is just that… It’s not real. "The reason they call it the American Dream is because you have to be asleep to believe it." ~ George Carlin
Oh my goodness, I suggested this!!!! YAY! Thank you so much for doing this!! Anytime anyone asks me why I don’t trust the government I always point them towards this story and soooo many other examples like it!
right when she said there's a cure, i go "I'm allergic to that" and she said "unless you're allergic sorry", sounded like we was in the same convo😂 too funny lol
Crazy fact… my great uncle was part of this and my grandmother took care of him after this blew up. It was so sad. He was tortured for years so it really messed him up mentally. When my grandmother explained to me this story years later, I was blown away.
When my mother died 13yrs ago she went in to the hospital for severe abdominal pain. She had been experiencing this pain for possibly a couple of years however she refused to see anyone about it because she did not trust doctors. When she finally went to the hospital they told her that she had a hernia but when the opened her op to fix the problem they discovered three different forms of cancer in her body. To this day I really don't know what actually killed her. She refused further treatment when she woke up from the surgery and asked to be taken home to live out her last month (yes that's right she died a month later) at home. This distrust of medical professionals still runs deep in a lot of black families and I can easily understand why. My own husband refuses to get regular checkups for this reason. It's awful and I can't even fault them for it.
Yes!!!! Thursday with Bailey!! As I'm listening, I'm cringing at the way PEOPLE were and still are treated, but this is the history that needs to be told! Thank you for covering all the horrible stories. Even as a Canadian I know that it was and is a world wide problem
@@adam_stanheight not delusional it’s just another thought line. I don’t think it is happening, more of a observation of what some people already 🤔 think
Look at covid most of us have been jabbed but it hasn't been tested properly so some of us more then others are guinea-pigs now. It normally takes trials of 10 years sometimes for testing and this either came out before without us knowing or it was rushed to "save lives" which it undoubtedly has.
I was hoping I wasnt the only one seeing the similarities. It has worked so well for the government before why not do it again. Thousands of lives lost for greed. Makes me sick
Hanging with Bailey and Joan is like having a girl's night talking about conspiracies and true scary stories while snacking on popcorn. I love this couch thing going on!
Last year while interning and getting my master's I read an article on barriers to medical care in the African American and underserved communities for a course. I was at Grady hospital which is a community hospital here, for my internship, the story was about a woman who didn't seek care for a lump in her breast for years and it was breast cancer that resulted in an auto mastectomy. The Tuskegee study was mentioned as why some people don't seek care for illness, in addition to the financial dynamic. The Tuskegee experiment has left lasting distrust of medical community til this day.
@@colourm3fab yep I know 😩 I am an African American woman myself, I most recently had an incident with a PA who I had seen for an annual exam. I came back for another issue, after getting the ultrasound she recommended etc. She wasn't attentive to there persistent issue I'm having, even after my exam showed I had a polyp. Sadly, she was also an African American woman so I was hopefully she would be a better listener. I find that the medical field in general tends to disregard or downplay women's issues sadly.
yup black women are dying during childbirth at the most alarming rate. unless our doctors are black or poc half the time we aren't receiving proper treatment for our ailments.
I am so glad you did this one. I did a paper on it for an ethics class in college and it's ridiculous how the people involved never really felt like they did any wrong.
For those wondering, people allergic to penicillin with syphilis are treated with Doxycycline or tetracycline for up to 28days.. Penicillin is not the only treatment anymore, its just the preferred quickest and most effective. Fear not penicillin allergy population 🤣
Sometime even if you're allergic they will still treat you with penicillin, but they make you stay in the hospital and administer it in small doses followed by antihistamines to help stop the allergic reaction
I took doxycycline for another illness I suffer from chronically and it made me sick to my stomach all the time. Totally random and not related at all but 😂
@@sasie5 no they dont use it if you are allergic.. And allergy meds arent used like that.. lol.. Penacillin nearly killed me and put me in the hospital for like a week
My dad told me when he was a kid in the 50's they played with mercury from thermometers. It was a liquid like substance they were used like Play-Doh. Just like how they didn't know about lead paint, asbestos in tiles, baby powder. Who knows what else we might still be using today!
Hey y’all, had to comment on this before I even watched:
My dad was born in this very hospital. During these experiments. The weekend he was born, his mother (a very pregnant black woman) drove all around Montgomery Alabama in active labor and was turned away by every hospital and clinic. The colored hospital, she was told, was in Tuskegee. So off she drove and the same time she arrived, a hurricane came with her.
So that weekend Tuskegee faced floods and torrential rain. They told my grandparents to take my dad home while they focused on repairs, and it wasn’t until decades later did we learn what he was spared from. Every time I see the rain I think of how it saved my dad and in turn, my entire lineage.
A lot of people like to say the harms of slavery, institutional racism, and segregation were years ago. But no, my boomer dad is still walking around wearing socks at the grocery store and talking to scores of people who have no idea the mortal danger my dad was in just for being born black. And that’s just one instance. There are many harms in life that disproportionately affect some more than others.
Read "The Control of Candy Jones" I wonder if Bailey would do a story on her...
I’m so glad your grandparents/dad got out of there safely. I have to ask what you meant about him walking around with socks on means? I’m aware people wear socks, but wanted to know if it meant something else.
@@hillarybaker2349 oh no i was making a joke about how “boomer” and innocent my dad seems, not knowing how the deep dark stains of segregation so closely threatened his life. I hear all the time “the harms of slavery were forever ago” no my dad is still here. My dad is walking around, and doesnt have to look like an “angry black man” or a “ghetto person” to have suffered from segregation.
Its a completely different argument and might be too deep for a youtube comment section lol (I apologize) but there is a belief out there that if you look white dress white talk white, you’re “safe”.
I wish more people knew this. And I worry how the thought of recent terrors are looked to the holocaust and not the hundreds of years of slavery.
Very well said
As a black woman, thank you for sharing this story! There is a lot of history out of Tuskegee, but the Tuskegee Experiment is definitely dark history.

Agreed.. a perfect mix of Rockabilly & Grunge.
And she pulls it off beautifully 😍
That social distortion tee is so 🔥
Oh and don't forget the "Cool Girl Nextdoor" look.
Facts!!
This still happens today. In med school in most states, students are taught that black people's liver reacts differently and they have a higher tolerance, leading to more black people deaths in medicine. The US government needs to be held accountable as with the Nuremberg trials for the German Nazis (American Nazis were never held accountable). The idea of America is great, but we have a long way to go and a lot of work. I hope with more of this coming out people will realize how much more work needs to be put in.
Hello how are you doing ?
That’s true yes, thank you for saying that
Some of the main reasons some POC are avoiding the vaccine

We studied this in pre-med and med school. This is one of the reasons why we have a lot of requirements for our research papers and we have to go through multiple ethical boards, especially when it involves human subjects.

Girl...the history of gynecology and obstetrics in the US is a freaking horror show of racism.
Yessssss. Disgusting horror show
Yes! And the history of the husbands stich and just other things done to womens bodies unknown to them by doctors.
It's absolutely horrific! I'm glad someone has mentioned this. POC women (Puerto Rican, Indigenous, and Black/African-Americans come to mind first) have been treated as experimental scientific bodies with no regard for their life or time quite a bit in American history.
And the history of Planned PSrenthood.
@@dalemoore8582 I seem to remember her having already talked about the founder of planned parenthood but I'm probably wrong.
This story reminds me of The “father of modern gynecology” James Marion Sims. This monster experimented on enslaved people without anesthesia. You can find many statues and hospitals in his honor.
I didn't know there were still hospitals with his name on it. Omfg!! That needs to change NOW.
Yes. I learned about this in midwifery school. He’s vile.
he believed that womens reproductive systems have no nerve endings and feel no pain and you still don't get anesthesia with many procedures.

Bailey in full face makeup in a t-shirt makes me feel like I can still dress up to stay home with my kid. Thank you for glamorizing lounging
oh i absolutely love doing that
It used to be a thing have you seen some of the vintage chaise loungers and negligees
Of course you can! sometimes I feel like wearing jeans and shoes inside, I felt dumb at first but who cares lol
i used to do this when i was in school, i would do my hair and makeup and wear a t shirt and joggers lol i liked being comfy
This story reminds me a bit of how Latina women back in the 60s-70s were involuntarily sterilized in Los Angeles and had no idea of this until whistleblowers that worked at the hospitals shed light to it. I hardly ever hear anyone talk about it. I’m Mexican and even some within our community have no idea this happened not so long ago. It’d be cool if Bailey did a video about it.

Learned about this in 2011 in high school (11th grade) during our college health class. Our professor was black and she made sure we covered the Tuskegee experiments. I was horrified and saddened. I thank our professor for teaching us the reality and cruelty black people have endured. THiS IS IMPORTANT and should be taught in schools.

Glad to see Joan back in studio I hope she stays she’s such a character!
Such a terrible story how horrifying for the patients to find out how all these people lied to them
So I’m in nursing school and I just got home from clinical. I was talking to a patient today, and you’ll never believe where he works. He said “you ever heard of DuPont?” OH BOY, HAVE I!

"What is your reason for living today?"
The answer is clearly Bailey exposing the corruption within the government all while being a straight goddess about it.

As a public health professional, I learned about this case in college. It really should be more public so more folks know about the racism in healthcare. The Tuskegee Syphillis Experiment till this day remains in public health history as one of the first systematic AND deliberate acts of racism. Bailey, if you think this is ridiculous you should look into Henrietta Lacks’ HeLa cells. It’s equally infuriating!!
Honestly, I think the Tuskegee Experiment was WAY more sociopathic than the Henrietta Lacks incident. Ms. Lacks received diagnosis and treatment for her disease. It’s just that the lab used her cells for experiments after performing her biopsy. The lab provided those cells free to all researchers at that time. It was later on that commercial entities got the free cells then established their own cell lines that they sold for profit. Ms. Lacks was deceased by the time anyone profited from her cells.
The gentlemen in the Tuskegee experiment were not told their diagnosis and not treated. Many of them died of the disease. Many had permanent disability if they survived. They passed the disease on to wives and children and many of them died or were disabled for life. This is in contrast to Ms Lacks who got the best care available at the time. In her case, the ethical dilemma is whether her surviving family is entitled to proceeds from sales of the cell line derived from her original cancer. These days, there are consent forms and when we agree that our tissue may be used in research, we sign off ownership of that tissue to the researchers.
I am over 50 and I learned about this in GRADE school!! This makes me wonder why it took so long for you to learn about this heinous act.

You guys need to see “Red Tails” and “Miss Evers’ Boys.” They’re both about the Tuskegee Experiment. Also, see “The Immortal Life Of Henrietta Lacks.” I never heard about the residential schools before so I’m going to look into that. Thanks Bailey, you are a Godsend!! 🖤🖤🖤
This reminds me a lot of Henrietta Lacks. Bailey you should totally look into her case and how she’s the reason we have HeLa cells. “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks” is such an interesting book, definitely worth the read. There’s some problems with the author of it but it gives great insight on Henrietta and what she contributed to science without her consent.
Her family was never paid a cent for her tissue and recently her family filed a lawsuit to get money. The government also wanted to have her family for a study but they refused. Thank Goodness.

I first learned about this experiment in college when we discussed experiments on humans before researchers had any ethical requirements. Researchers did some really f***ed up s***. This one really takes the cake with how awful it is, how many people were/are harmed, and how long lasting the impact has been. And how wide reaching the impact has been. Ugh.

I learned of this awful "experiment" when I was in medical assistant school. I really hoped it wasn't true, but sadly it is. There was one guy who actually had syphilis, everyone knew him in the area I honestly goget his name but he was ALWAYS dancing. Wherever this guy went he was dancing. Well his syphilis had advanced so much that it actually ate away his brain and he acted like he had alzhiemer's cause he no longer had his fully functioning brain. It was extremely sad to see AMYONE treated this way. And they really knew what was wrong with these people... AND STILL DID NOTHING to help cure them.
I'm so glad that Bailey covered this!

My grandpa was apart of this experiment in Alabama but he tells this story differently,he says that he remembers they were giving out vaccines and he took this vaccine, him and others and that’s how they contacted syphilis. Of course I wasn’t there so I can’t be the judge but I would love if you could research that part a little more because this is the reason why a lot of older African Americans don’t like vaccines.
I have heard that story, too.
Yes, they were told it was a v@ccine and they required their 'vitamins' at follow up appointments but they were placebos and basically just being watched as they died. They fooled the people just like with this jab.
Exactly this…. For some reason the part about it being a “vaccine” has been removed from medical books 🤷🏻♀️
@@nevamontford4914 seriously 😒
I think that if they had proof that the gentlemen in the Tuskegee Experiment were injected with syphilis, it would have been publicized. But there’s no proof and the sociopaths who thought up and performed this experiment are long dead.

Medicine has a very creepy history, this is why I love this kind of topic 😳
When my mother died 13yrs ago she went in to the hospital for severe abdominal pain. She had been experiencing this pain for possibly a couple of years however she refused to see anyone about it because she did not trust doctors. When she finally went to the hospital they told her that she had a hernia but when the opened her op to fix the problem they discovered three different forms of cancer in her body. To this day I really don't know what actually killed her. She refused further treatment when she woke up from the surgery and asked to be taken home to live out her last month (yes that's right she died a month later) at home. This distrust of medical professionals still runs deep in a lot of black families and I can easily understand why. My own husband refuses to get regular checkups for this reason. It's awful and I can't even fault them for it.
“You’re unalive. You’re unalive. You don’t keep living.” This line killed me! 😂

Last year while interning and getting my master's I read an article on barriers to medical care in the African American and underserved communities for a course. I was at Grady hospital which is a community hospital here, for my internship, the story was about a woman who didn't seek care for a lump in her breast for years and it was breast cancer that resulted in an auto mastectomy. The Tuskegee study was mentioned as why some people don't seek care for illness, in addition to the financial dynamic. The Tuskegee experiment has left lasting distrust of medical community til this day.
Bc it’s still happening. My friend is a RN and goes to her own hospital for treatment and they’re still dismissive and ignore us
@@colourm3fab yep I know 😩 I am an African American woman myself, I most recently had an incident with a PA who I had seen for an annual exam. I came back for another issue, after getting the ultrasound she recommended etc. She wasn't attentive to there persistent issue I'm having, even after my exam showed I had a polyp. Sadly, she was also an African American woman so I was hopefully she would be a better listener. I find that the medical field in general tends to disregard or downplay women's issues sadly.
We could be hit by two trains and a bus and they'd still give us Tylenol because for some strange reason they believe our pain tolerance is higher.
yup black women are dying during childbirth at the most alarming rate. unless our doctors are black or poc half the time we aren't receiving proper treatment for our ailments.
@@mugiwara_k9283So sad and true, I did a research paper and the maternal death rate for black women and native women specifically is 3 times higher.
My friend's sister in law's grandfather was one of the victims. Her uncle was part of the tuskeegee airmen.
I am so glad you did this one. I did a paper on it for an ethics class in college and it's ridiculous how the people involved never really felt like they did any wrong.
The "40 years" little meme bit made me literally die from laughing 😂 omfg bailey you're iconic. love ya lady
For those wondering, people allergic to penicillin with syphilis are treated with Doxycycline or tetracycline for up to 28days.. Penicillin is not the only treatment anymore, its just the preferred quickest and most effective. Fear not penicillin allergy population 🤣
Sometime even if you're allergic they will still treat you with penicillin, but they make you stay in the hospital and administer it in small doses followed by antihistamines to help stop the allergic reaction
Thanks, I came to the comments hoping someone knew cause I was getting a little worried 😆
I took doxycycline for another illness I suffer from chronically and it made me sick to my stomach all the time.
Totally random and not related at all but 😂
I have severe alergic reaction to penicillin
@@sasie5 no they dont use it if you are allergic.. And allergy meds arent used like that.. lol.. Penacillin nearly killed me and put me in the hospital for like a week
Bailey: Money doesn't solve anything!
Also Bailey: "Give me a frigging billion"
30,000 doesn't solve anything. A billion might help. ;-)
At least for their fam ffs
Looking for this comment 😂
I love when Bailey teaches us about the truth. Thank you bailey!
“Un-alive. Game over.” - Christmas is coming and my kids are going to asked me what I want… I want new Murch with the saying on it
I laughed out loud at that too! Haha 😄
My dad told me when he was a kid in the 50's they played with mercury from thermometers. It was a liquid like substance they were used like Play-Doh. Just like how they didn't know about lead paint, asbestos in tiles, baby powder. Who knows what else we might still be using today!
😱
My sis played with Mercury in school & she was born in '59. It's crazy how the normal back then is horrifying now🤦🏻♀️
