• Etzedek24, it's all good--well done. I prefer the first hook you wrote, though I think you should consider sticking a date in there. I'm sure you know that racism no longer exists in America, and hasn't existed here for so long (except for that 8-year interval we're trying to undo) that people might not know this is a Big Deal. So you could insert "1946-1958" in parentheses, for instance, and I think you should stick in "New York City" too--"black patients" were probably served in clinics and hospitals elsewhere in the world. It's a wonderful article and I hope you get lots of page views for it. Drmies (talk) 01:04, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

Interesting article, on good sources, offline sources accepted AGF. I also like the first hook best, striking the others. You may want to think about a different (more standard) formatting of the references. Thank you! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:55, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
