Esteemed Medical Journal Prescribes the Cure for America's Racism: SegregationBy Alex Parker
May 04, 2023
An iconic medical journal has diagnosed America with a critical case of Caucasian corruption. But don’t worry — it’s also penned our prescription.
In an April 27th article, The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) claims healthcare is riddled with racism:
As academic medicine begins to recognize and examine racism as the root cause of racially disparate health outcomes, we need curricula for training physicians to dismantle the systems that perpetuate these inequities.
Medical instruction is equally KKK-ish:
Since traditional approaches to medical education are themselves founded in inequitable systems, new approaches are essential.
The Journal offers a racism-eradicating key:
Racial affinity group caucuses (RAGCs)…are facilitated sessions involving participants grouped according to self-identified racial or ethnic identity to support integration of antiracism curricula into clinical practice.
Segregating students will serve as “part of a broader antiracism and antioppression curriculum.” Whiteness has wrecked the medical apparatus:
Founded on legacies of colonialism and racism, medical education has historically centered White learners and continues to perpetuate structural racism. Pedagogical approaches often center White learners and ignore the differential impact of content on BIPOC learners (Black, Indigenous, or people of color) with personal experiences of racism that are nuanced and have been informed by interactions and observations over their lifetimes.
