Tuskegee, Tuskegee, Tuskegee big fucking deal. How many drafted white military members were exposed to nuclear blasts and also marched through blast zones hours afterwards? Human radiation experiments https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unethical_human_experimentation_in_the_United_States >**Experiments involving other radioactive materials Edit** >Immediately after World War II, researchers at Vanderbilt University gave 829 pregnant mothers in Tennessee what they were told were "vitamin drinks" that would improve the health of their babies. The mixtures contained radioactive iron and the researchers were determining how fast the radioisotope crossed into the placenta. At least three children are known to have died from the experiments, from cancers and leukemia.[76][77] Four of the women's babies died from cancers as a result of the experiments, and the women experienced rashes, bruises, anemia, hair/tooth loss, and cancer.[61]
