3E Program Classwork Highlight
As part of our 3E Program, students explored a significant chapter in African American history — the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment. Conducted on Black men without their consent, it was the longest non-therapeutic medical experiment in history. After its exposure, ethical guidelines were established to prevent such injustices from occurring again, marking a pivotal moment in medical ethics and civil rights. As a class, we reviewed the Medical Code of Ethics established by the American Medical Association. We found a clause that still leaves room for discrimination. We decided to collectively write a letter to the AMA to address the loophole, in hopes of making a change. The AMA President, Jesse M. Ehrenfeld, responded to our letter to let us know what the AMA is doing to address the problem.
