Who we are is how we have healed. Both individually and as a nation, we are all the sum of our scars — historical, physical, spiritual and emotional. The healing we have not done haunts every crisis we face today. #WhoWeAreIsHowWeHaveHealed

This wound was first inflicted 400 years ago through slavery, driven deeper with every cruel, traumatic twist of the knife. This wound has been fatal to countless African Americans. Fellow physicians, it is time for us to pull out the knife and LEAD the healing process. (3/4)

Many among us have not admitted the knife is there. Among those who see it there, many say, “It’s not my job.” Fellow physicians, we are well beyond the point of, “First, do no harm.” It is time to acknowledge this deep, chronic, brutally-inflicted, unhealing wound. (2/3)

Malcolm X said, “If you stick a knife in my back nine inches and pull it out six inches, that’s not progress. Progress is healing the wound that the blow made.” We are physicians, expert on attending to wounds. Yet we haven’t pulled knife out the wound of racism. (1/3)
In this exclusive guest commentary, Scott Frank, MD, MS, explains to Healio readers why the health care community can no longer ignore racism and offers suggestions on how medical professionals can make a difference. https://t.co/klvI9p4I0u

I am generally not a meme-maker, but some simple cut and paste brought this to life. And, true that. #nopityremorsefear #covidnator

#inthetogether Comity + Unity = Community Comity refers to a state of civility courtesy and considerate behavior toward others. We used to do that. We cannot have community without comity. Unity, from the Latin "unus" or "one", refers to a state of togetherness. #Comityplusunity

An ounce of public health is with a pound of healthcare. Public health spending is proven to improve health outcomes. More healthcare spending does not #EverybodyEqualsAnyone #Good2Bapublichealther
I think when we come out of this, one of the lessons we are learning as a country is that we have to invest more public health. It's not a Democrat problem, it's not a Republican problem.

Authentic solutions acknowledge our own role in the genesis of the problem An “Us” mentality involves recognizing the value/valence of Mutual Empowerment Which involves interactions that enhance the power of others and of oneself or one's group at the same time #MutualEmpowerment

#Itsnotaboutyouitsnotaboutthemitsaboutus Interventions are often framed to save “those people” from themselves We do not acknowledge that perhaps greed not poverty is the root cause of many health problems Poverty belongs to them Greed belongs to us #MutualEmpowerment
