My one and only involvement in a clinical trial left me upset. When I inquired (after weeks of traveling on my own dime) when would the promised metro cards kick in, the research nurse in charge told me I should feel privileged to even be considered for this clinical trial and proceeded to inform me of the cost of the trial medicines I was taking. Actually research was being done on me and it would eventually help all involved. I'm a Black Woman.
