I didn’t think it was possible to become more pro-choice than I already was, but after 7 months of pregnancy all I can think about is how wrong it would be to make someone do this who doesn’t want to.

Dr. Lewis woke up this morning to tell it how it is. There is so much between the lines when it comes to the differential allocation of opportunity in med Ed. You cannot talk about DEI without acknowledging white supremacy and what that means for minoritized trainees and faculty – at Ann Arbor, MI

Today, as the Chief DEI Officer from ACGME gave Grand Rounds, an Anonymous faculty member placed in the chat box "I respectfully disagree. We should not admit trainees based on race and not their qualifications."....Whew...This 🧵 is an attempt to address this pervasive fallacy.

What are medical schools and residency programs doing to support their black trainees? Because this. We carry every single loss. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

Idk what’s going on at work/home for you this week, but if it feels like just another week with the background of collective pandemic stress, check on your privilege. Your students, coworkers, residents are not OK. Nothing about this is OK and we are just so tired – at Ann Arbor, MI

Personal Reflection: It's good to hear an example of a department's investment in diversity for excellence. I'm also convinced that solutions on diversity need to be home-grown, individualized, and thoughtfully adapted. Culture still eats strategy for breakfast. @AcademicSurgery

Read this article by @scottwoodssays and his quote you've been seeing all over. "[Anti-racism work] is uncomfortable work ... You will have to think about the work, and once you start doing that correctly, you will never not be thinking about the work." columbusalive.com/news/20200…
The Other Columbus: Anti-racism work is supposed to be hard

This absolutely applies to surgery. And every part of our lives. If you disagree, please DM me. I’ll explain what I’ve learned from @v_valbuen @JSantosParker and others: If you can separate these horrible, racist events from your life, that is the definition of privilege. – at Pittsfield, MI

To the follower who took the time to DM me criticism about my outrage surrounding the genocide of our Black community and my retweets of the voices of this conflict because you do not think this applies to Surgery or the social media sensititivies of #MedTwitter - YOU ARE WRONG.

Was going to send to @AFriedmanPeahl before I read it, but wisely checked first... OF COURSE she’s quoted in it. Pandemic + her research passion = accelerated change @ncspMICHIGAN

This is so so good. The amalgam of emotions, new challenges, and heartbreak that comes with being a clinician during the pandemic. The narrative pieces coming out of this by @UM_IHPI members are fantastic and powerful. Thanks, @iwashyna

When the wife of a severely ill patient with Covid-19 is told she can’t visit him, her anger quickly gives way to pleading — “What if I only spent 5 minutes and left?” How can we harness creative solutions during this pandemic so that people don’t have to die alone? #COVID19
