Tbh, I’m shocked that this tweet hasn’t been deleted yet. Reading it felt like a gut punch. A complete whitewashing of a horrific history that compromised the lives of 623 Black men, their partners, and children. (Yes, some of their babies were born with congenital syphilis.)
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the end of the Tuskegee syphilis study. Tomorrow, I will be joined by colleagues & #PublicHealth leaders as we honor the 623 African American men, their suffering & sacrifice, and our commitment to ethical research and practice.

This news from @UNCBlackCaucus is alarming. BOT, it is time to acknowledge the implications of your decision/non-decision regarding @nhannahjones . Set a date to consider her dossier. The health of our @UNC campus is at stake. We cannot wait!
70% of attendees at today’s #unccbc meeting are considering leaving the university. More than 60% are actively job searching outside of the institution.

Excited to share our new findings on MME per day at this. Guess what? There are FOUR ways to calculate MME/day and they differ grossly. Inches, Centimeters, & Yards. @chris_delcher @yanningwang @AlanKinlaw @ToskaCooper @BrookeChidgey
