However, participation is limited to applicants who “self-identify as African American/Black, Hispanic/Latinx, Native American/American Indian/Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, Asian and Pacific Islander.”

But right […]

Watchdog group demands Johns Hopkins eliminate DEI program that called all white people ‘privileged,’ created a ‘toxic culture’

A healthcare watchdog group is demanding that Johns Hopkins Medicine eliminate its Diversity, Equity and Inclusion program after its boss created a “toxic culture” by declaring all white people, Christians and men as “privileged.”

Do No Harm condemned the elite institution’s “empty” apology after Dr. Sherita Hill Golden, chief diversity officer for the hospital system, sent a staff-wide memo last week defining privilege as “a set of unearned benefits given to people who are in a specific social group.”

“Johns Hopkins needs to completely eliminate their DEI department and channel those resources toward the primary objective of preparing the next generation of healthcare professionals to give the highest quality care to all patients,” Kristina Rasmussen, executive director of Do No Harm, told The Post.

Utah State Legislature Announces House Bill to Remove Identity Politics From Its Campuses

On January 11, members of the Utah State Legislature introduced House Bill 261 (HB 261), which proposes a common-sense approach to keeping politicized ideologies out of its institutions of higher education.
Rep. Katy Hall and Sen. Keith Grover announced the bill, titled Equal Opportunity Initiatives, which prohibits state-funded institutions from “engaging in discriminatory practices.” This includes the prohibition of requiring faculty candidates applying to the University of Utah, home of the only medical school in the state, to commit to a particular ideology as a condition of employment.

Patients, Not Medical Students, Are a Vulnerable Population

Two months after Hamas’s October 7 invasion of Israel, Baylor College of Medicine canceled a lecture scheduled many months before on “Antisemitism in Medicine,” to be given by me and another physician who has received many antisemitic threats, some of which led to police protection. Last year, my long-running course at Baylor on medicine and the Holocaust was canceled. It has become increasingly evident that medical schools, medical-licensing bodies, and medical organizations are reluctant to acknowledge, let alone confront, the fact that their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies breed antisemitism in medicine.

California Physicians’ Group ‘Summit’ Urges Doctors to Promote the ‘Health Equity’ Ideology – But Dr. Marilyn Singleton Pushes Back

Physicians for a Healthy California (PHC) – the philanthropic arm of the California Medical Association (CMA) – recently called upon the state’s doctors to make “health equity,” a Critical Race Theory (CRT)-inspired doctrine, a priority in their practices.

PHC held its Health Equity Leadership Summit on September 14-15, 2023, in San Jose.

The concept of “health equity” claims that “systemic racism” and “oppression” create substantial barriers for minority individuals who encounter the healthcare system. According to this ideology, achieving “race concordance” between minority doctors and patients means more people from minority racial and ethnic groups would obtain better health care.
