Racism in healthcare is pervasive and deeply troubling. It affects patients as well as healthcare providers. In this session, we will hear from four physicians – two trainees and two more senior faculty members – about their own deeply personal stories. The presenters come from backgrounds that have been historically underrepresented in academic medicine. Each of the presenters will reflect on their own professional journey and consider the influence of more senior colleagues encountered along the way. These personal stories will form the basis for a discussion featuring “prescriptions” from panel members. The session will seek to identify steps and best practices that we might identify and adopt to recognize and combat either visceral or systemic racism.
