But yeah we need more African scientists, chemists, biologists, etc...
I just learned something new today and I am in a worse mood then before.
I've had the best insurance that money could buy, i had a Dr. try to manhandle me for taking off my clothes to slow when I had a herniated disc. I had to push him back, And finally when the cat scan came and showed that I was indeed injured he was all apologetic. And trying to make it seem like I was not descriptive enough in describing my pain.
I had this white Dr. bytch that was scared to touch me, She insinuated I was faking my injury (torn rotator cuff) to get out of work. Everytime she touched my shoulder she would do so with one finger and rush to wash her hands afterwards. I finally just got to the point where I told her to put some gloves on to try to reverse that shyt.
I've had Physical therapy where I walked into an empty office and the therapist and his assistant was sitting at the desk flirting with each other. when they asked me why I was there I told them. they looked at the computer and said I missed my appt. I then went out to my truck and grabbed the paperwork saying that I was there at my scheduled time and that either they or their receptionist screwed up. And they said that they couldn't see me because they had an "Itinerary" to stick to...
Plenty of times the hood wanted to come out of me and give folks in the medical field that work... I can only imagine how it is for folks on medicaid/medicare. My shyt was top notch and I still was mistreated on several occasions.

My dad is a doctor...he's told me some stories that were just like
Everything from racist white patients refusing to have him work on them cause he was black to white doctors getting ancy about working with black patients cause for some reason they associated black skin with dirtiness and disease.
Wait wait wait, your dad is a doctor? I thought you grew up more hardscrabble than that.

Done.
Eh. I actually came up from a fairly well to do background. Went to private schools cause my family wanted to give me and my siblings the best of everything. Grew up in a upper middle class suburb. I don't necessarily talk about it too much on here cause I felt like I'd be judged unfairly because of it. But yeah, my dad's a doctor, he's been operating from three practices from two hospitals to his own office in Pittsburgh (where I used to go as a kid to watch him do his rounds just for fun on Saturday mornings...still have memories of watching saturday morning cartoons while he was having appointments). He would always tell me tales about how he worked hard in Lagos getting his basic education essentials as a teenager, moved to London to pursue medicine at Oxford, and got a scholarship for medicine in the states in the 70s and eventually became a seasoned professional.Wait wait wait, your dad is a doctor?

How is it taking it too far when the medical establish is still guilty of this? Everything from misdiagnoses, lack of access to healthcare and affordable insurance, an obvious case of disparity between blacks and others when it comes to everything from organ donation to even basic emergency care...still goes on and has gone on. The basis of medical research, especially in the differences between blacks and whites, is rooted in social darwinism, eugenics, and scientific racism (basically claiming that blacks for inferior to whites and other races).

I've been paranoid about this too! You see how homosexuality is on the rise. How do we know that these doctors aren't injecting these black babies with something in the hospital at birth. It might even be so organized that black patients are situated in a certain part of the hospital, and being given drugs especially marked for black people for various different reasons. Thoughts like these disturb me.
