This is especially touchy bc a quarter of the century before I participated in these - science fair is what got me to believe I could do science, what changed my career path and thought me observational skills, necessity to take good notes though experiments and so.much more

From Gardens to Large-Scale Restoration Projects, Native Seed Is the Gift That Keeps on Giving Collecting native seed can be labor intensive but it eventually pays for itself by creating even more seeds β€” for free.

Well, not too shabby

Worse than Tuskegee because at least at the start of that trial there wasn't already an effective therapy. Hit's all the other marks though - single blind, on a vulnerable population, white investigators, black patients etc. Just a big ol racist boondoggle.
