I encourage all my colleagues to take the race implicit association test. Know your bias and work to correct it. #enddisparities #maternalhealth

[ACOG @acog]

Disproportionate negative maternal health outcomes for women of color are a result of many factors incl. racism & bias in access to & delivery of health care. #Obgyns must be aware of racial health disparities & be willing to work toward their elimination. https://t.co/w73boS14RV

[AliGorman @AliGormanTV]

So grateful to the brave men & women who participated in clinical trials testing covid-19 vaccines including Michael Pearson. He signed up for the #Moderna trial b/c he wanted to make sure African Americans were represented in the studies. @6abc

Spreading your message @RachelChoron

[Rachel L. Choron, MD FACS @RachelChoron]

PSA: when writing letters of recommendation... do not address them “Dear Sirs,” as it is 2020 and the surgeon reading your letter is often female.

This is especially painful when the LOR is written for a female candidate.

This is also common, nearly 1 every interview day!

[Society of Black Academic Surgeons @SocietyofBAS]

As the world comes to terms with the deadly impact of racism, today, on #Juneteenth, we’d like to CELEBRATE the SBAS family! A family that celebrates our achievements & provides refuge as we persevere in spaces that don’t always value us. (1/3) #SBASCelebratesJuneteenth

[Jocelyn Williams @mamadoc97]

@SocietyofBAS Keep up all the good work! Our communities need our perseverance!

[Jocelyn Williams @mamadoc97]

I agree whole heartedly...still much work to do.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Juneteenth has never been a celebration of victory, or an acceptance of the way things are. It's a celebration of progress. It's an affirmation that despite the most painful parts of our history, change is possible––and there is still so much work to do.

My great grandfather, Samuel Mitchell, was born into slavery in Edgefield, SC but he became a Reverend and a teacher. Today I celebrate Juneteenth. I reflect on the past and look to the future. #Juneteenth #freedom #resilience #blacklivesmatter #thereishope #ourindependenceday

@Brianna__Yates @coopermedschool Brianna thanks for your kind words and for sharing the resources. We need to all be in this together!

"Our country must unite to combat and dismantle racism and discrimination in all its forms and denounce race-related violence, including police brutality. Enough is enough."
