Performed over the course of about forty years in Macon County Alabama, at least six-hundred African American sharecroppers were observed in an effort to record whether or not syphilis affected races differently. Major red flags came into play when the U.S. Public Health Service not only refused to give these civilians penicillin but actively kept them from getting it independently. This study managed to quietly continue for forty years before it was exposed to the disgust of the public. Syphilis had spread throughout generations by this point. Learning about this event impacted me because of the layers of exposed corruption and tragic acts against humanity. A lot of these deaths could have been prevented if the townspeople had received the medical information and treatment being withheld from them.    ]]> 2023-03-22 23:17:13 UTC https://padlet.com/ehenson1022/kbrjeuz1gw5wwlx5/wish/2527901011 ehenson1022 https://padlet.com/ehenson1022/kbrjeuz1gw5wwlx5/wish/2527981070 Psychologist Phillip Zimbardo and his research team gathered twenty-four men attending Stanford University to support an experiment revolving around a fake prison. This project was made possible by the U.S. Office of Navel Research. For six days participants acted as prisoners or guards and navigated their new lives, responsibilities, and expectations. I found this information disturbing because it demonstrates how higher powers can corrupt individuals with good intentions through the method of encouraging immoral behavior disguised as formalistic guidance.  ]]> 2023-03-23 00:41:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ehenson1022/kbrjeuz1gw5wwlx5/wish/2527981070 ehenson1022 https://padlet.com/ehenson1022/kbrjeuz1gw5wwlx5/wish/2527987708 The Howard Community College next to Baltimore, Maryland was visited by the organization known as The National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research. The team forged the Belmont Report at Belmont's own Conference Center, which served a few key purposes. First, it reduced confusion by comparing and contrasting research with therapeutic practice. Next, it set the groundwork to treat clients with civility through ethical principles such as ensuring their safety and boosting pros well over cons. Finally, The Belmont Report described justice as a detailed balance between the advantages gained and the negatives endured from research. The duality of this project has piqued my curiosity and heightened my respect for Biomedical and Behavioral Research and the lasting impact it has had on society. ]]> 2023-03-23 00:47:22 UTC https://padlet.com/ehenson1022/kbrjeuz1gw5wwlx5/wish/2527987708
