EUGENICS.  Black and Native American Women

BLACK WOMEN https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUDI4c4CdlW/?igsh=OWFkeGs1MGgxdXZx    THE MISSISSIPPI APPENDECTOMY  “The Silient War on Black Women” They went to the hospital for care. They left unable to have children. From the 1920s to the 1970s, thousands of Black women across the United States were secretly sterilized under government-approved programs. Doctors called it treatment. The government called it policy. Communities called it the Mississippi Appendectomy. Generations were erased quietly   Native American Tribes Even up to 2019.         https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f91AKH_x__U   Eugenics against Native Americans in the 20th-century U.S. involved forced and coerced sterilizations, targeting up to 25–50% of Native women between 1970 and 1976. Driven by racist ideologies that viewed Indigenous people as "unfit" or "inferior," these programs were executed by the Indian Health Service (IHS), frequently targeting minors or using deception.   Forced Sterilization (1970s): A 1976 Government Accounting Office (GAO) investigation found 3,406 sterilizations of Native women by the IHS between 1973 and 1976, though many cases went unreported. Many women were sterilized without consent, under sedation, or under threat of losing children

 

 

 

TUSKEGEE EXPERIMENT

In 1997, President Clinton issued a formal Presidential Apology. In his apology he announced an investment to establish what became The National Center for Bioethics in Research and Health Care at Tuskegee University. Many records can be found in the National Archives   The Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male was a study conducted between 1932 and 1972 by the United States Public Health Service and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on a group of nearly 400 African American men with syphilis as well as a control group without.   https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9422551/   Abstract Purpose: The participation of minorities in clinical studies is the subject of much discussion and has even become the subject of Federal law. The project known as the Tuskegee Syphilis Study and officially titled "The Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male," is one of the great debacles of American medicine and a national shame. Despite the fact that its existence is well known, many do not know the historical facts of the study nor the context of the study. My purpose here is to recount the facts of the study and its historical context.

 

 

Identity: 

      Not just Black American’s BUT OTHER ETHNIC GROUPS (Latino, Caribbean, American Indigenous Tribes, and more.

 

                             “..the system had gotten into his head.”

 

In 1968, NET — the National Educational Television network, which later became PBS — produced a documentary called "Still a Brother - Inside the Negro Middle Class".   The film explored a part of Black America that rarely made headlines: Black professionals, educators, and families who had achieved a degree of economic stability in a country that was simultaneously burning down around them. MLK had just been assassinated. Cities were in uprising. And the civil rights movement was fracturing along lines of class, strategy, and identity.   This clip captures one of the most honest moments in the entire film — a Black middle class man sitting in front of a camera in 1968 and admitting, out loud, that the system had gotten inside his head. That he had spent most of his life distancing himself from working class Black people, and measuring his own worth through a white middle class lens — without ever fully realizing it.

 

A National and Global Trend. Not Just LA but all major cities in dilemma. with the Unhoused, Recovery\Homeless April 2026.

 

Follow the money.  Who owns the hotel or motel franchises in that city?             “funnels money into expensive motels rather than long-term solutions.”

Antiquated approaches needing 22^nd Century Solutions.  Be ahead of the time.

This is not just an issue for the Mayor, but administration staff, the whole community for a sustainable long-term program for the unhoused, recovery\homeless.

Planning is a key component. 

Quick, preferred solutions are not the key for a fix to temporary housing in low-cost unsafe hotels\motels.  A breeding ground for drug and human trafficking.  Ask a tenant.

AI Overview Nuclear waste causes health effects primarily through ionizing radiation, which damages DNA and cellular structures. Acute high-dose exposure triggers radiation sickness (nausea, vomiting, death), while chronic Low-dose exposure increases risks of cancer ( leukemia, thyroid), cardiovascular disease, cataracts, genetic mutations, and developmental issues in children.

“….. disposing of this high-level waste in a permanent geologic repository but has yet to build such a facility because policymakers have been at an impasse over what to do with this spent fuel since 2010. As a result, the amount of spent nuclear fuel stored at nuclear power plants across the country continues to grow by about 2,000 metric tons a year. Meanwhile, the federal government has paid billions of dollars in damages to utilities for failing to dispose of this waste and may potentially have to pay tens of billions of dollars more in coming decades.   “

 

 

https://www.gao.gov/nuclear-waste-disposal Issue Summary Radiation is used in many different industries, including as fuel for nuclear power plants and in the production of nuclear weapons for national defense. These uses generate nuclear waste, and this waste must be disposed of in safe and effective ways. There are three main types of nuclear waste—high-level, transuranic, and low-level waste—and each type must be disposed of according to its risk to human health and the environment. For instance, high-level nuclear waste remains highly radioactive for tens of thousands of years and must be disposed of in such a way that it can be securely isolated for a long period of time.  The Department of Energy (DOE) oversees the treatment and disposal of radioactive waste from the nation’s nuclear weapons program; it is also responsible for siting, building, and operating a geologic repository to dispose of nuclear waste. There are a number of ways that DOE could improve how it stores, treats, and disposes of this waste.  For instance:  Spent nuclear fuel. The nation has over 90,000 metric tons of spent nuclear fuel from commercial nuclear power plants. DOE is responsible for disposing of this high-level waste in a permanent geologic repository but has yet to build such a facility because policymakers have been at an impasse over what to do with this spent fuel since 2010. As a result, the amount of spent nuclear fuel stored at nuclear power plants across the country continues to grow by about 2,000 metric tons a year. Meanwhile, the federal government has paid billions of dollars in damages to utilities for failing to dispose of this waste and may potentially have to pay tens of billions of dollars more in coming decades. If Congress were to authorize a new consent-based process for siting a repository, it could help break the impasse over a permanent solution for commercial spent nuclear fuel.    Waste from weapons programs. DOE also oversees the treatment and disposal of about 90 million gallons of radioactive waste from the nation's nuclear weapons program. Most of this waste is stored in tanks at 3 DOE sites. According to federal law, certain high-level mixed waste must be vitrified—a process in which the waste is immobilized in glass—and disposed of in a deep geologic repository. However, DOE estimates that about 90% of the volume of this waste contains about 10% of the radioactivity. DOE considers this portion of the waste to be low-activity waste, which experts believe may be safely treated and disposed of with methods other than vitrification. Nevertheless, DOE plans to vitrify a portion of this low-activity waste at its Hanford Site in Washington State but may face challenges starting operations of a treatment facility to do so. In addition, DOE may be able to reduce certain risks and save tens of billions of dollars by adopting alternative approaches to treating and disposing of a portion of Hanford’s low-activity radioactive waste. DOE could also save billions of dollars by considering alternate treatment and disposal pathways for portions of the waste that DOE intends to treat as high-level radioactive waste. Moreover, DOE has faced challenges designing and building high-level waste treatment facilities at Hanford and the Idaho National Laboratory. Notably, DOE does not have a comprehensive plan for waste disposal nor has taken steps to optimize waste disposal, which could save billions in costs and help DOE communicate with regulators who oversee disposal facilities.  Transuranic nuclear waste.  Transuranic nuclear waste is waste contaminated by nuclear elements heavier than uranium, such as diluted plutonium. The United States has only one deep geologic repository for the disposal of defense-related transuranic waste—the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) near Carlsbad, New Mexico. WIPP is expected to operate until the 2080s, but much of its infrastructure is decades old and needs to be repaired or replaced. In addition, DOE has not assessed opportunities to optimize decisions about transuranic waste disposal.   Low-level waste.   Low-level waste may be generated from both civilian and defense activities. Low-level waste is generally defined as waste that is not high-level or transuranic waste. Low-level waste decays rapidly and can typically be disposed of in a near-surface disposal facility. Three gaseous diffusion plants—located near Paducah, Kentucky; Portsmouth, Ohio; and Oak Ridge, Tennessee—at one time enriched uranium for both defense and civilian purposes. However, these plants were rendered obsolete by newer, more efficient technologies. As DOE decontaminates and decommissions these facilities, it generates significant amounts of waste, including building materials and hazardous and radioactive waste removed from equipment and piping. Much of this waste is considered to be low-level waste and must be disposed of at a low-level waste disposal facility.    However, DOE’s fund to clean up these plants is likely not large enough—cleanup costs may exceed the amount in this fund by $45 billion. In addition, DOE is working to convert DUF6 (a dangerous byproduct of the uranium enrichment process) into a more stable chemical form that can be disposed of or reused. DOE estimates it could cost at least $7.2 billion to convert and dispose of the DUF6 as low-level waste.    If DOE can transfer portions of its DUF6 inventory—such as by selling some to a private company—it could save billions. However, it is unclear if DOE has authority to sell depleted uranium. Moreover, DOE is responsible for disposing of certain low-level nuclear waste from medical equipment, metals in nuclear reactors, and cleanup sites—commonly referred to as greater-than-class C waste. However, no legal options currently exist to dispose of this waste.

 

 

 

Still No Answer. September 2025-April 2026. Family still needs independent autopsy for Trey Reed in hanging death

Family still needs independent autopsy for Trey Reed in hanging death

Bonnie Bolden Pam Dankins

Mississippi Clarion Ledger

April 6, 2026

De'Martravion "Trey" Reed's family is still waiting for promised answers about his death — nearly nine months after Mississippi authorities ruled it a suicide.

Reed, 21, was found hanging from a tree on the Delta State University campus in Cleveland, Mississippi, early Sept. 15, 2025. Days later, the Mississippi State Medical Examiner announced his cause of death was hanging and the manner of death was suicide, with no foul play suspected.

Civil rights attorney Ben Crump's legal team arranged for the Colin Kaepernick "Know Your Rights Camp Autopsy Initiative" to fund an independent autopsy. Dr. Matthias I. Okoye of Nebraska completed it before Reed's funeral on Sept. 27, 2025.
