NEW PAPER 🚨 Just in time for Indigenous Peoples Day & ERAS season. Indigenous physicians are highly underrepresented. We found it will take over 100 years to close the gap if current matriculation remains stable ‼️ We propose systemic solutions 💡 https://t.co/WgbtiN7cpU

It's 2023. If you're researching/writing about Indigenous Peoples, it's time you identify your positionality up front in your writing. Yes, it matters if you're a white person writing about us! Especially if you don't have any Native co-authors. #nothingaboutuswithoutus
