Abstract:
:The medical community is no exception when it comes to structural racism and implicit bias, often present in dangerously subtle ways. To enter a residency program in which one is the only black person seems odd, especially considering the decades-long calls to action for increasing diversity. Unless the societal majority removes the blinders and steps out of their realm of privilege to address personal and systemic racist and biased views, progress will not be made. Sponsorship and inclusion of those Underrepresented in Medicine also lead to a stronger, more diverse academic community, and ultimately better health care.
