In college I was just about always the only black person in class. I decided to apply to medschool when I realized I was tutoring all these pre meds who are traditionally accepted. Self studied 4 MCAT. Got in, and turned out I was 1 of 2 black people. No one’s stealing seats.

Today is the anniversary of the Stonewall Inn riot, a turning point in the fight for LGBT rights. I see echoes of the oppression that made a riot inevitable in the anti trans bills being proposed in legislative chambers across the country. History will repeat unless we act.

The last few days reminded me of this 2021 @nytimes piece featuring a study showing that Black people are more exposed to air pollution from every type of source, including agriculture, vehicles, and even restaurants, than any other group. https://t.co/puXdOKmfoZ

Researchers uncovered stark disparities between white people and minorities across thousands of categories of pollution, including trucks, industry, agriculture and even restaurants.

As the national week of action to #KeepMasksinHealthcare ends, thank you to everyone still wearing a mask to keep themselves & others safe. You help make it possible for people at increased risk of #COVID19 to access healthcare. The week may be over, but the action is not.

In case you missed it: Women are less likely to be credited for their scientific contributions than men. It’s true across multiple fields & at all stages, with important repercussions for career progress. #WomenInSTEM #WomenInMedicine #MedTwitter
