The history of medicine is filled with amazing scientific discoveries and remarkable innovation, but the profession is also haunted by a history of structural oppression and exclusionary practices that act as barriers for people of color. This history influences the policies, practices, and procedures that govern how physicians are trained in the United States today.
In a new episode of "Beyond the White Coat," AAMC President and CEO @David Skorton, MD, speaks with AAMC Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer @David Acosta, MD, about the history of structural racism in U.S. medical education and how that history informs today's learning environment.
