Black Angels
In 1920s New York, a deadly tuberculosis outbreak left hospitals desperately short-staffed. When white nurses abandoned their posts, Black nurses from the South were recruited, promised better pay and opportunities. However, they arrived at a remote, under-equipped sanatorium to face both the ravages of the disease and pervasive racism. This book chronicles the two decades of courage and resilience shown by these unsung heroes, known as the "Black Angels," who risked their lives to care for the sick and played a crucial role in finding a cure, only to be forgotten by history.
