Another Version of The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment — Pt. 2

April 29th, 2022 in

In 2001 a Washington Post headline reported, “Miss Evers’ Misses The Mark On Tuskegee Tragedy.” In my opinion, that statement of admonishment for the 2001 HBO film about the story of the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment is an understatement. The Washington Post initially stated, “The experiment turned out to be a heinous government experiment in which…

Tony Brown’s Journal’s Historical Film Tribute To African Americans In The Military

March 11th, 2022 in

African Americans have been, since the Revolutionary War, the invisible strength in America’s defense. But while vital to the country’s security, their worth was not always acknowledged. Consequently, America’s African-American fighting men and women were  forced into a defensive struggle within their own country. In every battle, African Americans have historically faced a series of…
