Another tale of black men each a sisyphus

 by the CDC criminally given syphilis.

The Centers For Diease Control ran a study of syphilis

for many years.._

Anerican black soldiers risked their lives in WW2 as pilots

and on the ground

but when they got home, they found that racism still

dominated their world.

In the late 1940's.

After the war the CDC decided to study syphilis

and actually gave syphilis to some American blacks.
