The Tuskegee refers to the Tuskegee Institute, founded by Booker T. Washington in Alabama in 1881. It was an important educational institution for African Americans, focusing on vocational training and higher education. The term is also associated with the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, a notorious clinical study conducted from 1932 to 1972, where African American men were misled and denied treatment for syphilis to study the disease's progression. This study highlighted ethical violations in medical research and had lasting impacts on public health policies.
