I'm proud of this one. I've concluded most global health people don't talk about justice cuz they actually don't know what it means or how to apply it to their work. Pandemic treaty is imp opp for justice. Rajat Khosla n I wrote to make some noise. . dx.doi.org/10.1136/bmjgh-…

"I often hear colleagues say that 'science is objective'. But that is simply not true. Even science is influenced by social contexts. And when much of our scientific understanding originates in deeply racist, colonialist contexts, we must challenge it." -Dr Annabel in #Divided

Sharing anti-racism resources compiled by Black medical students. Of all these I would recommend Medical Apartheid by Martha Washington as a great starting point for those of us in Medicine tinyurl.com/yckwac22 Black Medical Students' Association of Canada @AFMC_e #ICAM2023

50% of global health leaders are nationals of just 2 countries - the UK and the U.S. Dr Fifa A Rahman asks, how can we be sure they have a true understanding of the needs of communities around the world? #Decolonising #Access2Meds #GlobalHealth

#Haiti was the first country in the world to permanently abolish slavery & the slave trade. Haitians dealt a decisive blow to the entire system of slavery. Our ancestors became a threat to the existing world order. Haitian history is world history. Happy Haitian Heritage Month!🇭🇹

Thanks to Dr Annabel for writing her book: profilebooks.com/work/divided/ Illustrated throughout with compelling story-telling, it makes the case with incisive evidence and history, the need to re-think healthcare for those from racially minoritised backgrounds.
