  • Human Radiation Studies: Remembering the Early Years
    DOE/EH-0481 HUMAN RADIATION STUDIES: REMEMBERING THE EARLY YEARS Oral History of Biochemist John Randolph Totter, Ph.D. Conducted January 23, 1995 United States Department of Energy Office of Human Radiation Experiments September 1995 DISTRIBUTION OF THIS DOCUMENT IS UNUMITE I I FOREWORD I N DECEMBER 1993, U.S. Secretary of Energy Hazel R. O'Leary announced I her Openness Initiative. As part of this initiative, the Department of Energy Iundertook an effort to identify and catalog historical documents on radiation experiments that had used human subjects. The Office of Human Radiation Ex- I periments coordinated the Department's search for records about these experi- ments. An enormous volume of historical records has been located. Many of these records were disorganized; often poorly cataloged, if at all; and scattered across I the country in holding areas, archives, and records centers. The Department has produced a roadmap to the large universe of pertinent in- I formation: Human Radiation Experiments: The Department of Energy Roadmap to the Story and the Records (DOE/EH-0445, February 1995). The collected documents are also accessible through the Internet World Wide Web I under http: //www. ohre. doe. gov. The passage of time, the state of ex- isting records, and the fact that some decisionmaking processes were never documented in written form, caused the Department to consider other means to I supplement the documentary record. In September 1994, the Office of Human Radiation Experiments, in collaboration I with Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, began an oral history project to fulfill this goal. The project involved interviewing researchers and others with firsthand knowledge of either the human radiation experimentation that occurred during the I Cold War or the institutional context in which such experimentation took place.

  • Issue No.122 February 2020 AAHM in ANN ARBOR
    Issue No.122 February 2020 AAHM IN ANN ARBOR We look forward to welcoming you to Ann Arbor in early May 2020! We are excited that most of the conference will take place at the historic Michigan League, with its comfortable and aesthetically interesting rooms. This meeting will differ from many previous AAHM gatherings given that the primary venue is located about 2 miles away from the main conference hotel, the Kensington Hotel. The Kensington is the site for Thursday’s afternoon events, including the opening reception, and Sunday’s morning sessions. Activities on Friday and Saturday will be at the Michigan League. These activities include the book exhibit and awards ceremony, which will be in the wonderful League ballroom. The presidential address will be delivered by two of our most distinguished Susans—Susan Lederer and Susan C. Lawrence on Friday morning. It will be in the League’s Mendelssohn theater. The Garrison lecture, delivered by Evelynn Hammonds of Harvard University, will be held on Friday afternoon in the historically important and recently renovated Rackham auditorium. Since the busiest days of the conference will take place away from the home hotel, we have put great care and energy into arranging for accessible and regularized transportation options. We want to ensure that everyone has the necessary information to navigate the conference and enjoy their time in Ann Arbor. We will have volunteers and detailed maps and instructions to make movement between sites as seamless as possible. The program itself is designed to optimize your time at the conference. Getting to Ann Arbor: Ann Arbor is accessible via plane, train, bus, and car.

  • The National Negro Health Movement and the Fight to Control Public Health Policy in the African American Community, 1915-1950
    ENTHRONING HEALTH: THE NATIONAL NEGRO HEALTH MOVEMENT AND THE FIGHT TO CONTROL PUBLIC HEALTH POLICY IN THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY, 1915-1950 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Paul Alexander Braff Diploma Date December 2020 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Bettye Collier-Thomas, Advisory Chair, History Dr. Bryant Simon, History Dr. Lila Berman, History Dr. James Downs, External Reader, Gettysburg College ii © Copyright 2020 by Paul Braff ________________ All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT In the early 1900s, African Americans died at higher rates, got sick more often, and had worse health outcomes for almost all diseases when compared to whites. This disparity was due to a combination of racism, discrimination, and segregation. Most blacks could only afford to live in unhealthy conditions and had little or no access to medical professionals. Problematically, poor black health led many whites to think of blacks as being inherently diseased, promoting the segregation and discrimination that contributed to black ill health in the first place. This project examines Negro Health Week (NNHW), which became National Negro Health Week (NNHW), a public health campaign designed by African Americans as a systematic effort to improve their health that lasted between 1915 and 1950. The dissertation reveals the strategies African Americans used to empower themselves to combat ill health and the ways medical ideas became accessible to blacks. The racism of the white medical establishment limited the ability of African Americans to enter the medical profession. The small number of black doctors and nurses meant that NHW had to rely on non-medical professionals to teach health practices.
