The Immortal Life of Henritta Lacks is a movie about Henritta Lacks, an African-American lady who was diagnosed with cervical cancer in the 1950s. Without her or her family's consent, a biospy of her cancer cells were taken. Her cells became known as HeLa, which changed the course of cancer treatment. During the time she was hospitalized, African-Americans could have their cells taken without their consent and Ms. Lacks' family was neither told nor were they compensated for it. When the truth was finally revealed, it raised concerns for patient's right to privacy and consent.
