Race suicide

Black immunity During Yellow Fever in Charleston

1793 Philadelphia yellow fever epidemic

Article Evaluation

This is the page for the Philadelphia epidemic and it addresses the Black population and supposed immunity, however I think a focus on the spread in Charleston could be a great separate page. The Philadelphia article has good citations, appears neutral, addresses equity gaps. Another option would be to add a section about Black immunity on the overarching Yellow Fever page which lacks this (Yellow fever).
