In banning affirmative action, the Supreme Court has *not* banned using race in college admissions. "Race neutral" is a legal fantasy, the latest to conserve racism. As Uma Jayakumar and I write @TheAtlantic, “race neutral” is the new “separate but equal.”

Disappointed but definitely not surprised. Nevertheless, we will persist.

Like the staggered start in track and field, affirmative action is intended to account for historical inequities experienced by marginalized communities in higher education and other endeavors. Today, the Supreme Court has decided that this tool is no longer appropriate.

Bottom Line: There are inequities in UIM trainee evaluations and experiences. We need to do better in recognizing our bias.

Whirlwind 48 hours in SF teaching #POCUS to primary care providers based throughout the country with @GusiPocus. Amazing to share the joys of POCUS with Oakland-based youth with @BGB_BlackGirls. Exhausted, grateful, and heart so full! #MedEd #healthequity #whatadoctorlookslike
