On April 21 at 5 pm, the MMA will host the 90-minute virtual workshop, Reckoning with Racism in Medicine, featuring video stories from physicians of color about their experiences studying and practicing medicine in Minnesota.
Efforts to create inclusive and equitable environments must acknowledge the harmful effects of racism, microaggressions, and implicit bias. Through critical dialogue and reflection, this workshop will inspire understanding, compassion, and the motivation to work toward an anti-racist culture of medicine in Minnesota. Participants will:
Identify issues faced by physicians from historically marginalized groups;
Explain how racism in medicine can hamper work to advance health equity and create a more inclusive workforce; and
Recognize actions and steps needed to develop a more inclusive culture of medicine.
