Rockefeller Center, NYC

Quick history lesson: The family whom this building was built for is known mostly for their wealth but hardly for the secret experiments they help conducted on Puerto Ricans.

During the early 20th century, the Rockafeller family secretly sterilized men and (mostly) women in Puerto Rico with the help of the U.S. government. By 1974 35% of the Puerto Rican women were sterile and this number reached 39% by 1981.

In 1931, the Rockefeller Institute assigned Cornelius Rhoads to a research commission in San Juan, Puerto Rico. While in P.R., Rhoads purposely infected Puerto Ricans with cancer cells which killed at least 13.

In a letter to another doctor, leaked to the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party, Rhoads wrote: “the Porto Ricans are beyond doubt the dirtiest, laziest, most degenerate and thievish race of men ever inhabiting this sphere. It makes you sick to inhabit the same island with them.… What the island needs is not public health work, but a tidal wave or something to totally exterminate the population. It might then be liveable. I have done my best to further the process of extermination by killing off eight and transplanting cancer into several more. The latter has not resulted in any fatalities so far…. The matter of consideration for the patients’ welfare plays no role here - in fact, all physicians take delight in the abuse and torture of the unfortunate subjects”.

He later goes on to establish the U.S. Army Biological Warfare facilities in Maryland, Utah, and Panama, and is named to the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. While there, he begins a series of radiation exposure experiments on American soldiers and civilian hospital patients.
