CHAPTER

Black Doctors and Medical Racism

I think that medicine as an institution was built off white supremacy and racism like in the way that so many like gynecology were built upon performing procedures on enslaved black women. I find it really difficult if things are built off oppression then how do we use that same system to get liberation? It's a long time coming but yeah I mean I wrote about this when I first started writing for my radio show, "This Is My Radio Show" A lot of what I talk about is kind of disrupting or agitating or destroying medical institutions which can be done by people who want to change them.
