Hi Everyone, hope you are all staying safe during this pandemic. We are continuing our series on the long intertwining history of race, racism, and science. In this episode, the third of four*, we discuss some specific examples of racist scientific misconduct: things like the Tuskegee Experiment and the treatment of Henrietta Lacks and her family.

*We went so long on this episode that we split it in two, with the second part on Racism and IQ coming out on Friday, so look forward to hearing Sean and Nathan rant about that shit for like 40 minutes.
