An eye-opening drama about the Tuskegee Study, a scar on American history where 399 African-Americans were denied treatment for syphilis and deceived by the United States Public Health Service from 1932-1972. Chronicled through the experiences of a public health nurse who attempts to aid four men but self-serving doctors and Washington bureaucracy thwart her efforts. |
