"Are you here to transport him down to the or?" Me: "Nope. I'm his surgeon. Happy to though if it'll help get the case going" This happens so frequently I've become partially numb to how sad it is. Wash, rinse, repeat...

When my husband leaves for emergency surgeries at night...I worry. I know that at any moment, the color of his skin can make him a #victim. I know some would easily mistake him for a thug or thief rather than a Harvard trained plastic surgeon. The killings must stop. #GeorgeFloyd

Disturbing times call for action. The ABC and our cardiovascular partners are extremely disturbed by violent acts that cut to the core of the lives of our community and denounce incidents of racism and violence. abcardio.org/wp-content/upl…

I wrote out some thoughts on how to make this moment a real turning point to bring about real change––and pulled together some resources to help young activists sustain the momentum by channeling their energy into concrete action. medium.com/@BarackObama/h…

I’ve felt powerless recently...like there is nothing we can do to fight the racial injustices of this world. But that’s not true. Every bit of effort to support our brothers and sisters helps. STRIVE Mentorship Program is one small part in the fight of which I am proud. JAMA Internal Medicine

Today we intrdcd a motion to cut funding to the LAPD, as we reset our priorities in the wake of the murder of #GeorgeFloyd & the #BlackLivesMatter call that we all support to end racism. This is just one small step. We cannot talk about change, we have to be about change.

#Racism is often subtle, and sometimes so blatant that it stuns. The words of Quentin Youmans, MD, MSc, FACC are powerful: Ten years of training and . . . no coat would ever be white enough to overcome my black skin in some patients' eyes. ow.ly/cdrJ50A2URy #endracismnow

Chadwick came to the White House to work with kids when he was playing Jackie Robinson. You could tell right away that he was blessed. To be young, gifted, and Black; to use that power to give them heroes to look up to; to do it all while in pain – what a use of his years.

Best #UNGA speech ever? ā— Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia’s (1963), set to music by Bob Marley; ā€œuntil the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned… the #African continent will not know peace.ā€

I’m beyond thrilled that my friend Joe Biden and our first Black and Indian-American woman Vice President, Kamala Harris, are headed to restore some dignity, competence, and heart at the White House. Our country sorely needs it.
