BLACK RACISM IN AMERICA

Did you know that the American Government denied many rights of Black Americans in the span of 200 years or so. The United States government made labratory rats out of the Black Americans during the great depression. 

In 1932, 200 black men are infected with Syphillis but they are not informed by the United States health department. Instead of treating their illness they are made lab rats to know the progress and symptons of Syphillis in the human body. They neither know they could be treated at all. 

In 1935, United States government refused to act on a certain epidemic that happened in the Black American Community which killed thousands of blacks. The United States did not act on it because it is an opportunity to wipe out the Blacks. The United States health department admitted it after 20 years in 1955.

Another Maltreatment the Black Americans got was they are discriminated and given a place in public places separate from the whites. Even up to the present moment, there are oppression among the Black Americans from the whites. 

However Obama as a black american is an exception. At least 98% of the Black Americans in United States are still discriminated and maltreated today. only in discreet way.
