I am beginning this article as it is so important both to the history of modern medicine, and also because it ties into a section in [[Chiropractic]] that is now being rewritten. [[User:Nancy Sculerati MD|Nancy Sculerati MD]] 06:22, 5 March 2007 (CST)

Journal of the History of Medicine and Allied Sciences - Volume 55, Number 3, July 2000, pp. 203-255.( my summary: At the end of the 19th Century-start of the 20th, most black physicians in the USA were trained at one of 4 black medical schools in the South, because they were not admitted (with rare exception) to the hundreds of other medical schools that existed - with the exception of 11 schools). The black medical schools came in 2 major brands-the missionary schools that grew out of educational efforts after the civil war, and the proprietary schools that were established, like the proprietary schools of their white counterparts, by individual practitioners of medicine. Like with the white proprietary schools, many were pure commercial enterprises - sort of diploma for money. Others were of higher quality. This paper makes the case that Louisville National Medical College (1888-1911) might have been the best.
