The Upshot
Did Infamous Tuskegee Study Cause Lasting Mistrust of Doctors Among Blacks?
A study makes a leap to causality, but it’s not as if racism stopped: We should be careful about blaming a single incident in the past.Aaron E. Carroll missed.
The mistrust is of the agencies of the federal government.
Reasons for mistrust of local administrators are many and persistent.
The Tuskegee Experiment is much cited by third generation agitators.

Officer’s Murder Trial in Freddie Gray Death Turns on ‘Rough Ride’
The state’s case rests on whether it proved that Officer Caesar R. Goodson Jr. intentionally drove a police van in a way that caused Mr. Gray’s death.
"Mr.
Jaros, the law professor, said that the rough ride theory had
“flatlined,” but “that doesn’t mean that they don’t have a case at least
for manslaughter based on his failure to buckle and then his refusal to
get medical attention.”
“There’s
no question,’’ Mr. Jaros said, that “you’ve got really a horrific level
of callousness to the experience of the people who are being shuttled
through the system.”
“The problem is, that doesn’t necessarily satisfy a criminal charge.”"

Historians, Police and Others Argue What Makes Orlando Massacre ‘Worst’
Some have protested that describing the attack as the worst mass shooting in United States history ignores other acts of violence that may have claimed more lives.
"By
the definitions used by people in his field, Dr. Fox said, the mass
shooting in Orlando was the worst in United States history, but he
added, “I don’t think there’s any value in saying so.”
“Whether
it’s a record or not really shouldn’t matter; it doesn’t make it any
more tragic,” he said. “And if we talk constantly about records, someone
out there is going to want to break the record.”"
