The Story of How Black American Doctors are Isolated, Alienated, and Marginalized in Residency.

Рет қаралды 231,053

This video is a detailed examination of the complex series of events that play out in residency programs across the nation as Black Doctor's futures are destroyed before their eyes.
This is NOT another 'takedown' of white males. This is a dissection of the perfect storm of variables; group think, highly competitive and toxic work environments, extreme tribalism, inflated egos and abuse of power, all in the setting of an America which continues to struggle with centuries old racial divisions. These variables coalesce in residency programs- most severely in surgical residencies- to create hell on earth for black residents.

Hi, nice commentary and I want you not to take this wrong but from where I stand I'm not a doctor or lawyer or actress or singer who have and make a lot of money you cry out racism which is true but the way I see it is that you want to be in that same echelon as Your white colleagues are in other words you want to communicate only with them and not be where your own people are that love you and care more for you you trying to be in their era we have enough power enough money to do our own thing we can build our own Doctors offices and everything else we don't need to rely on them pacifically to make it to the top in other words, why do you want to have a Oscar when you could create your own Tyrone avoid why would you care if you're not on the cover of Vogue when you could be on the cover of Essence Just think about that come to where you are needed and wanted the most because if you think about it, a lot of black patients that are being intrigued in the medical places are mistreated just as much as you are so we all connect together and leave a side along will rise all the way to the top and covered them up Thank you and just stay strong and don't let nobody take over your mind.

My question is, do we allow ourselves to die while using intelligent words to form our protest? Will we use our eloquence of speech to describe the pain of losing our children to this hateful system. Should we march, sing, pray and hope for better days? Is there some other more effective way to change our situation as so called black people living under these hateful systems? A lot of questions I know, but surely there is an answer.

My paternal Aunt (Now retired)and my baby sister are nurses. According to them you would not believe the astounding amount of Black patients who die needless deaths.My Aunt originally started out as a doctor but for a Black female in her Era. NYC in the late 1950s.It was brutal. She was mocked,isolated and overly scrutinized by her mostly White colleagues. As you know as nurses, the sharing of information between medical professionals is crucial. There are numerous conferences and forums that doctors are encouraged to attend. White patients did not want my Aunt anywhere near them.Black patients doubted her competence.She tried to explain to bridge the cultural gap concerning the behavior of Black patients. Given the history of the terrible treatment of Blacks by the medical establishment. They didn't listen. This genius lady nearly had a nervous breakdown because of the way she was treated. She decided to go into nursing. Because she thought she could better advocate for the patients. Regardless of race. On the surface it appeared she was taking on a subordinate role to the Doctors. But because she had such vast knowledge of so many fields, she was able to gain their confidence. As well as the patients. Encouraging any doctors she interacted with to not take any shortcuts and to do the proper follow-up of patients. Especially the Black ones.She did this for over 40 years. Later on in her career,she had to deal with more foreign Doctors. It was both shocking and brutal as to how these doctors perceived Black patients. My baby sister,now in her sixties, is still into nursing. She has the same problem in the present day.I don't think people understand how brutal institutionalized racism can be. It can destroy your confidence and your soul.Something you can't see visibly. But just as devastating and corrosive. Now imagine. BANKING AND FINANCE, REAL ESTATE, EDUCATION, HEALTHCARE, MAINSTREAM AND SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS, CRIMINAL AND LEGAL JUSTICE, COMMUNITY PLANNING COMMISSIONS, VOTING AND ELECTORAL PROCESSES. ALL of these institutions where Blacks face formidable challenges. As my Aunt once pointed out. What society fails to understand is that when you have a community that has suffered from so many needless and premature deaths due to medical biases,it is going to effect the dynamics, structures and stability of family units.For generations.

A friend from university, Black male, decided he wanted to go to medical school. He worked hard and had great grades. He scored one of the highest MCAT scores for the entire country. Though he was a few credits short, our uni gave him an honorary degree so he could start at a big name, prestigious medical program in the Bay Area in September. By the time he finished med school he had the highest test scores and terrible references. He ended up in a mediocre residency program where he was undermined AND had a middle aged White nurse accused him of sexually harassing her. (This young man did not trust White people. He used to warn the rest of us to avoid them.) It went to a criminal trial. There was no evidence. He was found innocent. So the nurse then took out a civil suit against him and the hospital supported her. He was dropped from the program. He committed suicide. He was the best and brightest of us. He was a superstar on so many levels. The system crushed this strong, intelligent, hard working, moral man.

@Flash-pp3cr Ай бұрын

@@mysticlegion8088Guess you didn't hear when he mentioned that the book he read/used did talk about racism. He just decided to focus on tribalism. Carmichael and Hamilton wrote in 1967 that, while individual racism is often identifiable because of its overt nature, institutional racism is less perceptible because of its "less overt, far more subtle" nature. That's why ignorants dismiss it, and like he said in his presentation, these cases are shunned. Now, institutional racism was defined by Sir William Macpherson in the UK's Lawrence report (1999) as: "The collective failure of an organisation to provide an appropriate and professional service to people because of their colour, culture, or ethnic origin. Does this sound like... Tribalism? Duh. Therefore, trying to dismiss systemic racism is counter intuitive. Tribalism and systemic racism in fact go together in many cases. If you know what systemic racism means, which has already been described. Don't forget, he described a literal racist event that occurred. Somehow HE ended up getting screwed over. He fought back and they didn't want to entertain his case anymore. He said it himself, sometimes the difference between tribalism and racism is hard to see and they look exactly the same. He described this. Institutional racism "originates in the operation of established and respected forces in the society, and thus receives far less public condemnation than [individual racism]".[3] Carmichael, Stokely; Hamilton, Charles V. (1967). Black Power: Politics of Liberation (November 1992 ed.). New York City: Vintage Books. p. 4. ISBN 978-0679743132.

Very relatable. It happens to patients every day. They are intentionally misdiagnosed, given harmful treatments, etc. A doctor refused to prescribe or misdiagnose unnecessarily and was forced to close the practice. The doctor was harassed to the point they were forced to leave the country. As a civilian., How do we support the military Drs. What would happen if we give them what they profess to desire. Come out from among them. No need to recreate the wheel. That is why the Montgomery Boycott was so successful. Unity and consistency. There are enough patients to support health care facilities. Enough is Enough.

Something is missing from his analysis on how to fix this problem for Black Residents. He says nothing about the Subjectivity inherent in the evaluation process. If there’s a way in which to reduce or completely eliminate a subjective grading process severely, it will go a long way to helping residents (or any students) avoid racial bias and preconceived notions about one’s ability based on race. As it is, nothing protects minority residents subject to the will of those instructors who are determined to make outcomes match bias, even when objectively it does not.

I'm African-American and a medical school graduate. My African-American friend lost their residency due to having to take off time for a child who almost died from a severe chronic illness. After they returned, the residents and attendings reharassed them daily, pressuring them to resign, promising to give credit for the time they already achieved in residency. So my friend resigned due to the crazy pressure. It was terrifying for them because if they breathed wrong they were penalized. They applied to another residency and was accepted. Then the former residency refused give them credit for the time they already achieved in residency. Now they can't be accepted to the residency that agreed to allow them to transfer. It's so awful! Their career is ruined! I have other stories as well. Awful!

I was often the only Black Airman and often just felt like if I spoke up it wouldn’t be well received. Like I didn’t have a witness so who’d believe me. On one occasion my CGO wrote me up about things that were lies invented out of thin air. I was flabbergasted. I had to write this detailed rebuttal with evidence that basically made this captain look like a liar. The First Sgt refused to file the write up because he also thought the guy was lying. His letter of counseling was still used to give me the lowest rating of my 20 year career. You are telling my story and I’m sure so many other’s stories. I felt heard watching this. Thanks. 🙏🏾

I'm a black physician, and I've been out of residency for nearly 20 yrs. In my opinion, the tribalism in American medicine and specifically medical training seems to be racial or ethnic tribalism. I don't see much of a distinction between racism and tribalism in this context. I think calling it tribalism is a way to get white males to consider the information presented in the presentation. In my experience, many white people will close their minds to anything labeled "racist", and I suspect calling it tribalism is a way to introduce the information in a non-confrontational way. Whether it's tribalism or racism, the results are unfortunbately the same.

Painful to hear of your experience. The marginalization of Black people in our society is prevalent across occupations. I endured it too working as a federal civilian employee and retired as early as I could because I was simply tired of it. Early in my career I watched my White counterparts who entered federal service when I did soar to top positions within my agency while leaving me behind as I competed with them. I later realized that it wasn't any type of failures on my part that kept me back, but rather I was caught in a system of cultural affinity where White decision makers simply felt more comfortable with promoting people like them. Distraught I was on the brink of leaving federal service early, but my brother advised me not to leave and to instead use my employment for what it was worth...a pay check. It forced me into financial literacy early and I used those pay checks wisely to purchase assets and today I'm a millionaire smiling with the last laugh.

All that and too many black Diasporans choose ignorance about the plight of U.S. Blacks, choosing to believe the image pushed by the masses, while at the same time seeing how they've also been pushing negative images about you to us. Yet, we're not in your country disrespecting you or your elders as too many Diasporans do here in the U.S. It's great that you were able to travel here, work, earn and save enough money to return to your homeland. I wish black Americans had the same options. Alas, we do not. So we endure this shyt as best as we can, while also watching others from all over the globe come here and prosper, mainly because of laws we (U.S. Blacks) fought for for _everyone_ and everyone comes here taking advantage of our work while looking down their nose. Then, many leave, returning to their homeland with their U.S. earnings, savings, investments and live well there, having extracted money from our economy and taking opportunities from citizens. Then have the audacity to talk about U.S. Blacks like we're a monolith, when you know you saw a variety of black folks here and that there are criminals in all nations, especially among the poor.

I am a orthopedic spinal surgeon. Everything that you said is true. The discrimination started in medical school and continued through residency. Through my training, it was always thought that I didn't know as much as my colleagues, when in reality, I had better grades and knowledge than all of the other non minority students in my class, who applied, and obtained orthopedic residencies. I knew that I had to be better than my non-minority classmates in order to be accepted into an orthopedic residency. The road was lonely, and I carried a burden to prove that I was not only equal, but stronger academically than my non-minority classmates . I always felt if I did not strive for and prove excellence then it would make it harder for the next minority who followed.

I was in the US Army for 35 years. During that time, I only ran into one black US Army doctor. This was at Fort Irwin, California, in 2010. He was a young doctor, and he really knew his stuff. He was an excellent doctor. Being black myself (a black US Army Infantry Officer), I asked him if he had experienced any of the racist crap I had run into. Sadly, he said that he had. Unfortunately, this stuff is so ingrained into American culture (i.e., white American culture) that it will NEVER go away. We just have to find a way to deal with it and fight it as best as we can.

The one challenge I see is that we as black folk do not have "real" advocacy" like other demographics where people will be held accountable for this behavior. We are not placed in positions of power to prevent this kind of behavior in most cases. Moreover, there is not enough exposure of this kind of behavior due in part of being labled as "using the race card" as some of our black conservatives(I have no issue with conservitism) want to say. Too often we would just sit back and deal with it becasue of fear of losing our lively hoods. At some point, we are going to have to start making some sacrifices for this madness to stop. Tribalism is real and can be a detriment/wreckless if unchecked.

Indeed never give up. I had to practically be very cunning, when I was in nursing school. My teacher didn’t support me. But I made it a sport to show her that I can. Made friends with another ( Yt male ) student my age (we were older than the other students). Everything I wanted to ask or do went trough my fellow student, because my teacher never answered my questions the way it should. I used to work in nursing homes on my vacations so I can acquire the necessary skills, so I could pass my internship. They are usually very happy when you come help them on vacation time, because of staff shortages during vacation times. And most of them happily teach you all sort of skills needed, so you can do the actual job. So that’s the way I teached myself, and I passed nursing school.Fast forward to work. I didn’t go work in a nursing home, because I would be working to close with them (my colleagues). But I applied to work for home care ( caring at home for the elderly). Here I do not have direct contact with colleagues, but I have to deal directly with my patients in their home settings. Because my elderly patients used to like me a lot, my colleagues grew jealous of me. Starting treating me poorly. But I stayed( because I was a permanent employee) and worked with my patients. I used to talk to my colleagues trough my patients when something needed to be done. It was like that idea did not came from me, but from my patients. I also work the night shifts. This was for me better. And this has worked for me until this day. Working now 15 years for this company. Many of the colleagues I started then, are now with pension. I am now working with a lot of younger colleagues now. And because I am the senior now, the work place is for me calmer. Working now for my pension. I used to think when I was younger, why all the hate and without any reason? But now I know better. Thanks for writing your stories.

I noticed in grad school preferential treatment to other students, left out of cool research projects, and I was accused of cheating on tests. I got a job in the industry it was from a different angle. I was challenged more than my junior peers and people just assumed I didn't know my stuff or my calculations were wrong and had to be double checked. A white female engineer noticed the behavior and asked me why I was treated like that. It was even insane being rated average when I outperformed based on metrics all the other engineers (even helping principal engineers). One time I broke down and called my pops with tears explaining I can't do this anymore after receiving a performance review and my bonus being reduced arbitrarily because they wanted to give it to another guy cause he been at the company longer. Being the only black person (often times the only poc) in the room in a technical position was draining. I've managed to move around a bit and had some great managers that looked out for me. I just didn't have the tools to deal with all of this. I ended up quitting the industry.

Although racism and tribalism are two different ideas, there are situations in which they can be connected to make one feel like they are the same. Tribalism is the affiliation and allegiance to a specific tribe or ethnic group, which frequently results in a feeling of superiority or exclusion of other people. On the other side, racism is the conviction that some races are inherently better or worse than others, which results in racial prejudice and discrimination. Tribalism may not always entail the idea of racial superiority or inferiority, even though it might encompass a feeling of connection and belonging. However, when tribalism results in the exclusion or discrimination of people based on their race or ethnicity, it can occasionally appear as a type of racism. Consequently, even if racism and tribalism are different, they share similarities. Tribalism is more like, "There is nothing better than being Black." Racism is more like, "If you are not black, then you are less than."

You’re not alone, it’s happening to black nurses as well…I served in the Air Force, got out, used my GI BILL to back to school & I found the nursing school house was just as toxic as the professional setting. My first job after graduating was in the ICU & let me say, that is no place for a new grad or a black male for that matter, which is a lethal combination in medicine. The ICU from the nursing perspective is seen as the “premiere” position in nursing (reserved for the bleach blonde white woman) as it is a gateway to advanced practice in the field such as becoming a CRNA. Long story short, I had my sights set on that pathway, however, no matter what I did, whether obtaining advanced certifications, receiving additional training, etc…I always felt like I was being gaslighted when I spoke to my leadership about attending CRNA school, I eventually tired of nursing & walked away from it in favor of engineering, it was a long road seeking another degree, especially in STEM, however now I am in much more intelligent company, around people who think deeply in logic & evidence based thought form, prior to speaking or making decisions. I’m honestly angry with myself for not listening to my gut initially & forgoing healthcare. I will never go back to healthcare or renew my license. I can only imagine the politics you were subjected to, I saw it very much during my days in the Air Force. I wish you well in retirement. Just know, not if, but when the time comes, we will be next to you, shoulder to shoulder.

Yes, nursing is extremely difficult and minorities are weeded out in some way shape or form. (Road blocks) Not many minorities in teaching or management in nursing. Medical school and residency as well, if you don't go into a direct program out of high school or upon leaving military service-(Bachelors-MD). It was a wise call to go into engineering. Sometimes we have to make changes and sacrifice for our peace and wellness. Just like Residency Rehab said he had to stay in the Army a decade longer to repair and reach his own goal.

Africa needs plenty of good doctors. I am AA and I am in East Africa. I think its time we sever ties with the US.. Honestly, doctors can do part time remote telemedicine jobs from home and work at a hospital over here ( to earn US income and foreign income). But its time we leave. So many of us have sacrificed our blood, mental health, time with family, income everything to that country that doesn't even recognise us after over 400 years of service. I am finished. Lets stop building up another mans continent and help re-build our own. Yes, we have earned the right to be in America and I understand if those that want to stay, stay and fight the good fight but I am tired of fighting. Personally, I feel like its time to take our resources and talents overseas where you are respected and treated as a human being. James Baldwin said " I think my exile saved my life, for it inexorably confirmed something which Americans appear to have great difficulty accepting. Which is, simply, this: a man is not a man until he is able and willing to accept his own vision of the world, no matter how radically this vision departs from others.”

After my fleet tour-(your first set of orders after getting wings at flight school and completing the RAG…I chose to go back to be a flight instructor in TA-4J’s in Texas because of what happened to me during flight school by a few white instructors. There were five Black students that came through while I was an instructor. I made sure their student flight school experience WAS THE SAME as the white students. No special treatment BUT explaining things and letting them know and feel that the mistakes they were making WERE THE SAME AS OTHER STUDENTS. I say all this to highlight that this is WHAT WAS AND APPARENTLY STILL MISSING IN THE ARMY’s DOCTORS PROGRAM. I was there to help all the flight students succeed. If a person is not suited or capable -the program is supposed to ‘naturally’ fail them.

All black children are not sitting in the lunchroom together for the same reason. Lions hang out with lions because that’s the natural order of the jungle. Lions are a unique species. Humans with different skin colors aren’t different species. All humans want life, liberty, and to be loved. All black children sit together in the lunchroom because they need to combine their power in defense of the biased views, racism, racial epithet, and attacks that happen in environments where they are the minority. My entire life I went to schools that were predominantly white, and they were some of the most vicious people I’ve ever met. We sat in the lunchroom together so we could defend each other. Whites in the medical field don’t work together in self defense. They work together bound by hate. There’s a difference.
