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.

Do No Harm v. the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians

The National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT) normally encourages professionals to pledge to provide critical life-saving services to everyone, “unrestricted by consideration of nationality, race, creed, [or] color.” But NAEMT is disregarding that pledge. NAEMT is operating a race-based “diversity” scholarship that awards money only to “students of color.” Whitestudents are flatly excluded, even […]

American Society of Hematology Says It Has ‘Moral Imperative to Confront and Dismantle Racism’

The American Society of Hematology (ASH) is committed to a lofty goal that has nothing to do with the delivery of sound medical care – what it calls a “moral imperative to confront and dismantle racism.”

The organization has joined many other medical societies on the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) train, even offering an ”Anti-Racism Toolkit” on its website with resources to counter so-called “systemic racism.”

The organization says it finds itself “called upon to discuss and address health disparities while teaching, conducting research and delivering care.”

The American Psychoanalytic Association (APsA) is consumed with the idea that the profession suffers from “systemic racism,” requiring a revolution in training and practice. Unlike honesty, which heals the mind, this […]
