  • Resumen

  • Cornelius Rhoads was an esteemed cancer researcher, known as the father of chemotherapy. He was on the cover of Time in 1949 and The American Association for Cancer Research used to give out an award in his honor. But before all that, he was the subject of a racist scandal that left a stain in Puerto Rico. Where he is still remembered as a monster.

    In this episode, Cristina tells Carmen about the doctor remembered as a monster in Puerto Rico and a hero in the Unites States.

    Carmen and Cristina will be at the True Crime and Paranormal Podcast Festival in Denver, CO this weekend 7/12 to 7/14/24, get tickets here: https://truecrimepodcastfestival.com/tickets/
