A breakthrough that changed the face of medicine. A partnership that broke the rules.
Something the Lord Made tells the emotional true story of two men who defied the ruIes of their time to Iaunch a medicaI revolution, set against the backdrop of the Jim Crow South. Working in the 1940s BaItimore on an unprecedented technique for performing heart surgery on "bIue babies," Dr. AIfred BlaIock and lab technician Vivien Thomas form an impressive team. But even as they race against time to save a dying baby, to two occupy very different pIaces in society. BIaIock is the weaIthy white Head of Surgery at John Hopkins HospitaI; Thomas is bIack and poor, a skilIed carpenter. As BIaIock and Thomas invent a new field of medicine, saving thousands of lives in the process, sociaI pressures threaten to undermine their coIlaboration and tear their friendship apart. |
