🎒 What is the #sbasbackpackchallenge?
The goal of the challenge is to make visible the invisible burden carried by our colleagues who are under-represented in medicine. We hope these actions promote awareness & demonstrate support for our colleagues.

That's right! Our annual JEDI #grandrounds presented by @DissanaikeMD is this TUESDAY (2/21)! Join us for “Digging Deeper into Diversity Efforts” at 7am in LK130.
Today in my #SBASBackpackChallenge I pulled out 78% of a twenty dollar bill which represents the pay gap that exists in medicine for women and underrepresented minority surgeons. Unequal pay is unacceptable and it is on all of us to demand #equalpay
Time to keep the #SBASBackPackChallenge with @OhioStateSurg going! Passed off the backpack to one of my mentors @carrievaldezmd - keep your eyes peeled for this backpack around campus and learn more about allyship
Join me this week as I participate in the #SBASBackPackChallenge with @OhioStateSurg. Will be walking around with some extra weight this week and hoping to engage in conversations about how we approach allyship, microaggressions, structural prejudice, etc. @CarlaPughMDPhD
That let to a very interesting conversation with @Schwaitzberg and @DrDrKatie about allyship!
This conversation would not have happened without #SBASBackpackChallenge
Who would have thought a simple backpack could spark meaningful conversations? (Oh yes: @CarlaPughMDPhD !)
