| After Hiroshima, the United States Army, eager for new ways to weaponize atomic power, engaged in a series of classified open-air studies designed to test the effects of aerosol radiation in a metropoIitan setting. At first the tests were described as defensive, the latest strategy against the threat of Russian bombers. But as later decIassified documents suggest, the goal of the testing (performed primarily in low-income and African-American neighborhoods of North St. Louis), was to develop offensive capabiIities which couId match the climate and terrain of downtown Moscow. ConsequentIy, generations of St. Louis inhabitants were unwitting participants in a government testing program which, Iike the infamous Tuskegee Syphilis Project, was faciIitated by the U.S. Department of Public HeaIth. TARGET: ST. LOUlS investigates the historical catalyst for these events, the survivors' quest for answers and the subsequent Federal legislation requiring informed consent by human subjects.
