First Black Doctor to Teach at Harvard
Dr. William Augustus Hinton, the son of former slaves, became the
first Black professor at Harvard Medical School and gained an
international reputation for his medical research.
As a young man, he
boldly declined the offer of a Harvard medical scholarship reserved for
African-American students in order to compete for a scholarship open to
students of all races.
The video was published on YouTube on April 28, 2008.
