The events of the past few months have propelled extensive discussions of racism and social justice. Education in these topics has emerged as one of many necessary mechanisms to promote real change. Therefore, this session will focus on innovative approaches to educating residents and faculty through development of anti-racism and social justice curriculum. Although the three examples target faculty and residents, these are broadly applicable to educating medical students, residents, fellows, and faculty.

After a brief introduction, the session will be opened by Dr. Elena Fuentes-Afflick to frame the topics that will be discussed in this session and to establish the importance of educating faculty and learners across the educational continuum on racism, anti-racism, and social justice. This will be followed by 3 very innovative examples of anti-racism and social justice curriculum that have been successfully implemented. These projects are inspirational and highly effective. After the speakers conclude, the session will end with 20 minutes for audience interaction with speakers in a moderated discussion and question/answer session. We anticipate there will be great interest and vigorous discussion of both the topics presented and the individual speakers' curricula.
