To Make the Wounded Whole
In the face of the racism that has shaped contemporary life and death chances in this Covid era, the history of African American responses to the Hiv/Aids (human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome) epidemic is particularly crucial both for its “pastness” and its current import. While histories abound on the organizing around Hiv/Aids, Dan Royles has written the first full-scale study of the responses within various America…

Ask a Feminist
Byllye Avery, cofounder of the Black Women’s Health Imperative, speaks to historian Susan Reverby about her activist work, beginning in the 1970s, to increase women’s access to abortion. She discusses the state of reproductive rights before and after Roe v. Wade, the genesis of the reproductive justice movement, and the tactics that might be needed in a post-Roe future
Compensation and reparations for victims and bystanders of the U.S. Public Health Service research studies in Tuskegee and Guatemala
Using the infamous research studies in Tuskegee and Guatemala, the article examines the difference between victims and bystanders. The victims can include families, sexual partners, and children not just the participants. There are also the bystanders in the populations who are affected, even vaguely, decades after the initial studies took place.

The Fielding H. Garrison Lecture
If the aphorism “history will be the judge” is deployed, the active agent of this formulation is the historian. Comparing two great(ly infamous) doctors, John C. Cutler and Alan Berkman, the article considers how historians balance digging for sources, creating meaningful narrative, and acknowledging our own beliefs that embed in the judgments we make. The article explores our responsibility for balance and moral judgment at the same time. Cutler…

The Great Starvation Experiment
“Jewish Chronic Disease Hospital, Willowbrook and Tuskegee.” These are the names of the bioethics trinity of research studies that all easily tumble off the lips of medical historians to explain unethical medical research done by “good scientists,” and requiring the move toward human subject protection. Far less is known about the University of Minnesota's 1944–45 human semi-starvation/rehabilitation experiment with 36 World War II conscientious …
Continuity and Contingency
Few American historians of medicine and health care are as well known as Charles E. Rosenberg. Since his first book, The Cholera Years, appeared in 1962, the conceptual frameworks Charles (as everyone calls him) developed and refined in his many publications have formed the historiographic backbone of our field. His interests in history have been so catholic, and his personal support of individuals so wide-ranging, that several generations of sch…
Don't Fence Me In
Irony and contingency are central to Charles E. Rosenberg's scholarship and theoretical stance. Irony is a a way to speak through history both to power and to those who would contest power. The question becomes, What kind of politics is it? The limitations of Rosenberg's ironic trope and its world weariness that can provide critique but no way to change is analyzed.
The Science and Business of Genetic Ancestry Testing
Commercially available tests of genetic ancestry have significant scientific limitations, but are serious matters for many test-takers.

Gendered Domains
For over two centuries the notion that societies have been sharply divided into women's (private) and men's (public) spheres has been used both to describe and to prescribe social life. More recently, it has been applied and critiqued by feminist scholars as an explanation for women's oppression. Spanning a rich array of historical contexts—from medieval nunneries to Ottoman harems to Paris communes to electronics firms in today's Silicon Valley—…

Everyday Evil
More Than Fact and Fiction
The Tuskegee Syphilis Study is surrounded by illuminating misconceptions—myths that cannot be blithely dismissed because they actually provide some insight into the significance of the study. One of those is that the men were deliberately infected with syphilis; another is that they obtained no treatment for the disease. Some other errors are alleged in two recent articles about the study, but these articles themselves create their own fictions

Miss Evers' Boys
This is a fictionalized movie from a play drawn from a historian's account of an experience that was all too real. Between 1932 and 1972, the U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) studied over 400 black men with latent syphilis and 201 controls in and around Tuskegee, Alabama. The men, however, thought they were being treated, not just observed, for their “bad blood.” The study achieved iconic status in the scientific research communities and generate…
