↠ NINETEEN HOURS LATER 😥
↠ Dense novel documenting the horrific medical experiments performed on Blacks and African-Americans from slavery to present
↠ Extremely graphic, harrowing, read
↠ I’m mad it took me 30 years to learn about this.
↠ The amount of complicit medical schools in the underground trade of black bodies is astounding and all should be held accountable
↠ This book left me feeling angry. Knowing most medical breakthroughs came out of treating black people like lab rats… just sickening
