New publication alert! Check out my manuscript that highlights Intersectionality & Black girls in the social work curriculum #BlackGirlsMatter While it’s focused on social work, I think there are lots of strategies for other social science curriculums tandfonline.com/eprint/A66YJUR…

New in NEJM. “Black residents training face ⬆️ rates of both remedial interventions & dismissal from their programs than do their White counterparts. This disproportionality raises concern that Black trainees are being overpoliced in medical education.” nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Ufere, MD MSCE Quentin Youmans, MD, MSc, FACC @LindaSuleimanMD Quinn Capers, IV Dr. Taison Bell Kimberly D. Manning, MD, MACP Edjah Nduom, MD (he/him) Continues throughout training well into P&T. Being Black in a field where you are greatly outnumbered layers the toll of being hyper-visible for criticism & invisible for recognition/promotion. It’s a tightrope that leads to increased burnout, worse yet suicide, & has to change.
