"Racist" can be an emotional and triggering label—nobody wants to be called a racist. Anti-Black racism is an unfortunate part of American history and still exists today. It's important to acknowledge the effects that racism has on our communities, whether it be discrimination for some or privilege for others. In this episode, we discuss contributions of anti-Black racism.

S3E17: Understanding Self Identity Mar 05, 2020

Show notes

How you choose to identify is your choice—no one has the right to tell you otherwise, not your family, not your friends, not your physician. But finding—and expressing—your identity isn't always easy. Sometimes, there are external and internal pressures. In this episode, Harjit and Bushra talk to fellow med student Laurel about what it looks like to start conversations, challenge the status quo, and create a space that includes all.

Coping With Failure in Med School (re-release) Feb 27, 2020

Show notes

Failing medical school is probably the biggest fear for every medical student. You don't anticipate you'll fail, and you can't really prepare for it either ... but what happens if you do fail?

S3E16: Money's Impact on Health Care Feb 20, 2020

S3E15: Decolonizing Medical Research Feb 13, 2020

Show notes

It should be admitted that not all research are conducted equally with everyone in mind, because everyone is a lot of people. As human beings, and especially as medical experts, we should challenge the information we learn and ask whether it is real knowledge or skewed bias. We should critically think about the ideas that might have formed throughout our life due to outside influences. In this episode, Margaux, Harjit, and Bushra talk about how medical literatures can be colonized and what it looks like to decolonize the research and think through a critical lens.
