The School of Medicine releases a “Commitment to Anti-Racism” statement, articulating the school’s intent to address systemic disparities across its missions of education, research and patient care.
“There are current structures, practices, and policies within our own healthcare, research, and education systems and institution that are directly in conflict with our ability to achieve health, educational, and social equity. It is our duty to identify and rectify these systemic inequities. We commit to a culture of trying, because change is hard, and conflicts will arise.”
