From the era of slavery to the present day, the first full history of black America’s shocking mistreatment as unwilling and unwitting experimental subjects at the hands of the medical establishment.

Medical Apartheid is the first and only comprehensive history of medical experimentation on African Americans. Starting with the earliest encounters between black Americans and Western medical researchers and the racist pseudoscience that resulted, it details the ways both slaves and freedmen were used in hospitals for experiments conducted without their knowledge—a tradition that continues today within some black populations. It reveals how blacks have historically been prey to grave-robbing as well as unauthorized autopsies and dissections. Moving into the twentieth century, it shows how the pseudoscience of eugenics and social Darwinism was used to justify experimental exploitation and shoddy medical treatment of blacks, and the view that they were biologically inferior, oversexed, and unfit for adult responsibilities. Shocking new details about the government’s notorious Tuskegee experiment are revealed, as are similar, less-well-known medical atrocities conducted by the government, the armed forces, prisons, and private institutions.

The product of years of prodigious research into medical journals and experimental reports long undisturbed, Medical Apartheid reveals the hidden underbelly of scientific research and makes possible, for the first time, an understanding of the roots of the African American health deficit. At last, it provides the fullest possible context for comprehending the behavioral fallout that has caused black Americans to view researchers—and indeed the whole medical establishment—with such deep distrust. No one concerned with issues of public health and racial justice can afford not to read Medical Apartheid, a masterful book that will stir up both controversy and long-needed debate.

Still Relevant to Read

19 septembre 2016 - Publié sur Amazon.com

Achat vérifié

I bought and read this book in 2012. I even used it in my own book, Through the Lens of the Transatlantic Slave Trade. However, it is still an important book for all to read. What struck me then and now are all the ways the medical establishment has undermined and denigrated the African body. When I encourage people to read the book, I tell them that the Tuskegee experiment is only one chapter in a book with 15 chapters. There has been so much under-the-radar activity that continues to encourage people to think less of the African Diaspora citizens who live with us. Our current Zika virus conversation is another twist for the books, which is probably an extension of the AIDS virus. Harriet Washington also takes us into a activities and conversation about Eugenics, which established stereotypes about African bodies more toxic and more menacing than biologically possible. This past week I was in a conversation about a Black woman who need a bone marrow donors. Her probably best match will be another black person, we're told. The protocols were established on Black patients in Ivy League hospitals for White patients, who use it much more often than Black patients. Thank you for opening my eyes about the insidiousness background from the medical/biological field. I look forward to your next work, hint, hint!

Unimaginable cruelty and wickedness

19 avril 2018 - Publié sur Amazon.com

Achat vérifié

The history of White America and its African American slave population is often one of unimaginable cruelty and wickedness. It’s an history that perhaps some Americans are marginally curious about, and others manage to remain blissfully ignorant. Occasionally, a book comes along that reveals the extent of the cruelty and brutality of White America against African Americans, that jolts the marginally curious, and destroys blissful ignorance.

“Medical Apartheid: The Dark History of Medical Experimentation on Black Americans from Colonial Times to the Present” is a book that may shock and disturb the reader. A thorough and well researched work that supports each reported act of medical malpractice, abuse, and excess, as well as government acts of bio-terrorism against it’s own citizens, with well documented evidence. The book provides the rationale for the wide-spread African American, persistent and profound distrust of the US healthcare system

However, a book that would appear to be an outright indictment of White America’s treatment of it’s African American population, and justification for African American distrust of the US healthcare system turns out to offer a lot of compromise, including practical and feasible solutions for curbing potential acts of medical malpractice, abuse, and excesses

This is an extraordinary, well researched work; congratulations to Harriet A. Washington!

As a Black female and a medical professional, I find this book to be an "eye opener"! I work for a world class institution and have found that medical exploitation of minorities in general and poor blacks specifically, is on going. Income level play a major role in the disparities, regardless of what you hear, that "all of our patients are treated equally, regardless of income." Blacks must learn to speak up, question what it is you don't understand and not be afraid to ask for second opinions.
You have a Patient Bill of Rights that should be posted in every medical facility. READ IT ! You have a right to ask that a doctor, nurse, aid personnel, data collector etc. speak in a language that YOU understand.Don't sign anything that you don't understand ! If you are having any type of invasive procedure, be sure that it is a Board Certified Specialist in that area of expertise performing it. Not a Resident Surgeon, unless the "expert surgeon" is present and observing and/or assisting. Get a POAHC and make sure it is someone who is vocal and assertive on YOUR behalf, when you are unable to speak for yourself. Having a degree is not a prerequisite for the latter.

Achat vérifié

This is such an important read for anyone interested in the history of black folks in the US and how the white population has continually oppressed the black population in cruel and gruesome ways. Washington is an amazing writer - even though she is writing about history (which can sometimes be a bit of a bore to read), she writes in a way that makes the text easy to read and understand, and make you want to keep reading. I also really liked how she focused on the prison system as a tool of medical oppression of the black community, because this point is often overlooked by a lot of scholars who decidedly chose not to pay attention to the prison population. Good book, great information!
