What is Henrietta Lacks: Legacy and Impact about?
Henrietta Lacks was a black woman who died of cervical cancer in 1951 at age 32. Doctors took and grew her cancer cells without her consent, creating the first immortal human cell line known as HeLa. Though her cells have been vital for medical research and advances, generating billions of dollars, Henrietta Lacks and her family have not been properly recognized or compensated for their role.
