Such an important text. And thank you for problematizing Euro-Western-centric health systems and knowledges. Some of us have raised that many Euro-Eastern knowledges are commonly dismissed, thus I so appreciate the distinction made and will use your terminology and cite this work

This is an incisive piece published today, that looks at biomedical inequity at the roots of knowledge production. From the individual to #planetaryhealth and taking into account #ecology. #decolonization

Clear and POWERFUL voices of @SaleemRazack @RicharLisa @suntoshpillay on the occult, insidious, kaleidoscopic & ubiquitous epistemic violence in medical curriculum. Echoes Said Spivak and @DocAmali Your must-read in #meded 2024 https://t.co/IIjW8VCo8v

The authors confront the coloniality, systemic racism and Indigenous erasure inherent in medical curricula and propose a way forward through pedagogies of love and shared humanity.

Based on Labour’s shadow cabinet, 84% went to comprehensive schools, 10% went to private schools and 6% to state grammar schools. That would mean for the first time the cabinet closely reflected British society.
