 | Vignesh Doraiswamy, MD- MedPeds Hospitalist @DoctorVig @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor I think the summation of my experience with racism in medical education has been a general sweeping under the rug or lack of acknowledgement that this all pervasive issue is here and affects ALL of is and our patients so much. #JHMChat |

 | Aanchal Thadani @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor As an undergrad, I worked in the largest ED in a medium-sized Texas city. I lost count of how many times docs dismissed minority patients are "frequent-flyers" or "non-compliant" without ever trying to understand barriers they may face. #JHMChat |

| Dr. Tsega @drtsega A1: Racism in medicine for me has mostly existed in the form of microaggressions. Too often have I been asked, “Where are you from?” and when I’ve replied “LA,” a patient has said, “No, originally.” #JHMChat |
 | ABIM Foundation @ABIMFoundation RT @JHospMedicine: We have two special guests for tonight's #JHMChat-both of whom have had highly important & impactful pieces exploring race in medicine published in JHM https://t.co/iaVJ8Sdvtm & https://t.co/rMkpT0mS16 Dr. Ndidi Unaka (@ndidiunaka) (L) & Dr. Kimberly Manning (@gradydoctor) (R) https://t.co/YFoJCJCcCV |

 | Payal Parikh, MD, FACP @Payalia320 @JHospMedicine @WrayCharles Hi everyone! I'm Payal Parikh academic hospitalist @RWJMS and vice chair of quality and safety, this is my first #JHMchat so excited to meet you all/learn from you all! |
| Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed @LoriSingletonMD Welcome, Lori! We hope you enjoy your first #JHMchat! |
| Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMChat A1: No formal curriculum in my own education, unaware of how much there is for students, very little in faculty dev (but changing). Witness to the leaky pipeline &(until now) not registering it. Having patients "whisper" something neg to me about BIPOC staff/faculty. |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka This is all too frequent for many. Do you recall any ways that you saw others push back? #JHMChat A1 |
| Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed RT @DrRGAcholonu: @SamirShahMD @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor So glad you're hosting this on #JHMChat with such amazing women @gradydoctor and @NdidiUnaka |
| Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed RT @wwchang: #JHMChat Ready for a robust conversation on such an important and challenging topic! @SocietyHospMed |
| Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMChat: My first experience with overt racist remarks towards me was last year when a patient’s mother (who claimed our institution was anti-white b/c we treated international patients) told her child’s nurse that she didn’t want an Asian doctor and made “Ching-Chong” sounds. |
| Shu Garcia (he/him) @anueru432 RT @drtsega: A1: A1: Racism in medicine for me has mostly existed in the form of microaggressions. Too often have I been asked, “Where are you from?” and when I’ve replied “LA,” a patient has said, “No, originally.” #JHMChat |
| Jennifer Caputo-Seidler, MD @jennifermcaputo @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor In medical education I haven’t felt racism was acknowledged, I’ve experienced race as a buzzword for certain diseases without digging into the health disparities that underlie the difference in prevalence #JHMChat |
 | Meghan Fanta, MD @meghanfanta Hi all, I'm Meghan Fanta, a PHM fellow @CincyPHMFellows. Ready to listen and learn. #JHMChat |
| Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed Here we go! 🚀 Topic 1 of tonight's #JHMchat: |
| Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @jenreadlynn @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor Yes, it is hard to to experience and witness these instances repeatedly. #JHMChat |

| Brian McGillen, MD @BMcGillenMD @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A1. My experience is indirect, hearing it through the voices of our faculty and residents at Penn State. Racist comments from families and patients were, unfortunately, not uncommon. #jhmchat |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka Many have had the experience of seeing racism veiled through "dark humor." I recall a colleague wearing her natural hair to work and being told it looked like "crack hair." Such a layered, painful macro aggression. #JHMChat A1 |
| Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor A1: Yes! I see myself and my loved ones in my Black patients…the way that my patients are viewed and treated has a profound impact on my psyche. #JHMChat |
| Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine @Payalia320 @WrayCharles @RWJMS Thanks for joining, Payal. We look forward to learning from you, as well in tonight's #JHMChat |
| Rhonda Graves Acholonu, M.D. @DrRGAcholonu #JHMChat I was once told I was not allowed to use the word microaggressions because it made other people feel uncomfortable. |
| Ashley Jenkins @AJenkins_MD RT @gradydoctor: Let's get this party started! Come join us! @JHospMedicine #JHMChat @NdidiUnaka |
| Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed RT @drtsega: A1: A1: Racism in medicine for me has mostly existed in the form of microaggressions. Too often have I been asked, “Where are you from?” and when I’ve replied “LA,” a patient has said, “No, originally.” #JHMChat |

| Aanchal Thadani @aanchal_thadani @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka As I spent more time there, I pushed myself to ask more questions: "I wonder if he is able to get time of work," or "can he pay for those meds?" It was intimidating, to say the least. A few nurses had my back. #JHMChat |
 | Rebecca Jaffe, MD @RJmdphilly Hi! Rebecca Jaffe @TJUHospital! Juggling bedtime (somehow later in covid era) but excited to #readlater and learn from you all even if I can’t get back in time! #jhmchat |
| Christopher D. Jackson, MD @ChrisDJacksonMD @DoctorVig @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMchat A1 Being held to different standards on clinical rotations than my colleagues who were not black. |

 | Sonja Raaum, MD, FACP @SonjaRaaum @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMChat Can't remember all of the times I've encountered it, but I remember the moment when I realized it was my role to address it - a patient called the aide a racial slur in front of the team, and I was a first year attending. We definitely debriefed after that... |
| Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor I teach about research. A few years ago I was really struck by a conversation with my students about how racism is a risk factor NOT being African American...that really stuck with me and I try to call it out when I see this misused...all the time #jhmchat |
 | Monica Verduzco-Gutierrez, MD @MVGutierrezMD @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMchat A1/ personal experiences? Many. From offensive name calling to saying I’m here b/c affirmative action. I don’t think we get enough education about racism in medicine. It’s finally a hot topic |
| Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMChat: A more subtle form of racism that I now wish I addressed better as a fellow was seeing a patient’s bellybutton Confederate Flag ring. I was very uncomfortable examining the patient and can’t imagine how her black nurse felt. |
| Brian McGillen, MD @BMcGillenMD @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor As former chief of our (then) section, these came to my desk in the form of "I want a new doctor" requests. Intolerable and demoralizing for folks who just wanted to come to work to make their patients lives a little better. #jhmchat |
| Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine Absolutely! #JHMChat |
| Alex Chinn, MD, FACP, FHM @ajchinn A1: In medical school and residency, patients (and one faculty member) mistook me for an Asian classmate on a regular basis. I have also had several patients ask where I'm from despite being American born. #JHMChat |
| Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor Yes. Sometimes I responded as an ally. Sometimes I stayed silent. Learning how much my silence actually said has been painful but trying to see it as an opportunity for growth. #JHMChat |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka A1: I am so sorry that happened! Did anyone stand up for you or was it ignored? #JHMChat |
| Aanchal Thadani @aanchal_thadani @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor I can only imagine! Especially in an ED, where you are likely to find yourself at your lowest. We need to be more attuned to patient suffering outside their physical ailment. #JHMChat |
| Anika Kumar, MD (she/her) @freckledpedidoc @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor T1. My 1st encounter with racism was in Medical School in Detroit. I remember learning about "Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome" & "Crack Babies." I remember CPS getting called on Black families/parents for abuse but not white families/parents for severe neglect. #JHMChat. |
| Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed RT @ChrisDJacksonMD: @DoctorVig @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMchat A1 Being held to different standards on clinical rotations than my colleagues who were not black. |
| Sonja Raaum, MD, FACP @SonjaRaaum @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMChat and as a medical educator now I am thinking about how to use my role to make sure all my trainees know they have a role in anti-racism. |
| Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor It also highlights that I am learning from my students and residents - they bring the diversity we lack sometimes at the faculty level because so few minority faculty #jhmchat |
 | Abdi Abdullahi MD, MPH @Abdi_Abdullahi_ @JHospMedicine @WrayCharles Hi everyone! 3rd year medical student at UCSF, l'm looking forward to learning from everyone during tonight's discussion #JHMChat |
| Vignesh Doraiswamy, MD- MedPeds Hospitalist @DoctorVig @gradydoctor @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka It's certainly not much, but I try to do what I call equity rounds at least once a week when on a resident service where we try to identify why it can be so hard for out patients to get the care we want them to. I hope that they see how the SDoH really play into all this.#JHMChat |
| Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @DoctorVig @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor Thanks @DoctorVig. Is it weird that I’m actually surprised that it hasn’t happened more over the last few months? I’ve been bracing myself for it given how certain leaders have described the coronavirus. #JHMChat |
| Monica Verduzco-Gutierrez, MD @MVGutierrezMD @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A1/ So much data on disparities of care for Black and Hispanic patients in my field but no one knows about it. #JHMchat |
| Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @jenreadlynn @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor I so appreciate your honesty. So many are worried about what to say. But saying nothing sends a message as well. #JHMChat |
 | Lori Singleton, MD @LoriSingletonMD @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMChat A1: Being called into a supervisor's office because a parent complained that you didn't identify yourself as the Dr...the assumption is usually that I'm NOT the doctor, I always identify myself. |
| Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @Abdi_Abdullahi_ @JHospMedicine Welcome, Abdi! So glad you could join tonight's #JHMChat. |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @bmcgillen26 @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka A1: This is super common. We have worked on signage in our hospitals to make it clear that we have a zero tolerance policy for discrimination or racist behaviors from patients or staff. It doesn't fix it but is a start. #JHMChat |
| Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs RT @bmcgillen26: @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor As former chief of our (then) section, these came to my desk in the form of "I want a new doctor" requests.

| Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka #JHMChat: The nurse was incredible and defended me, telling the mother it was unacceptable to use that kind of language. She documented the conversation. We were able then to take it to our hospital leadership. |

| Preeti R. John MD, MPH, FACS, FCCM, CPE, HEC-C @preeti_john @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor I remember listening to lecture about #racism where it was pointed out that we need not start a patient description/H&P with "a 40 year old AA male" or "a 40 year old white male" because it automatically creates preconceived notions. Had not occurred to me, but it's true #JHMChat |
| Eileen Barrett MD MPH (she/her) @EileenBarrettNM @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A1. This is really hard to read, which of course is why it has to be said. I remember during a path lecture every time the photo of a specific skin finding was a white person the lecturer said they think of dx X, & when it was a person of color they said syphilis #JHMChat |
| Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @bmcgillen26 @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor So true. How were these instances handled? #JHMChat |
| Dr. Annie Andrews @AnnieAndrewsMD @SonjaRaaum @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #jhmchat I think I am having the same visceral reaction as a mom as I am as a teaching faculty member. Now that I have woken up to the fact that it is my job to TEACH my kids to be anti-racist I realize every encounter with a learner brings the same opportunity and challenge. |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @StudentDocAda @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka #JHMChat: I am so sorry for that traumatizing experience! I hope someone stood up for you. A big issue in these situations is the loneliness of no one being an upstander. A1 |
| Elisha McCoy @elisha_mccoy @gradydoctor @bmcgillen26 @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka I love this! Would love to see this at my institution #JHMChat |
| Anika Kumar, MD (she/her) @freckledpedidoc RT @DrRGAcholonu: #JHMChat I was once told I was not allowed to use the word microaggressions because it made other people feel uncomfortable. |
| Benji Mathews, MD MBA @MDbenji @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor Over the years seen much racial bias, sometimes subtle, other times less so: ~Subtle examples: 1. Being mistaken for support staff & not a physician 2. Being grouped together: "you people all look alike" 3. "You speak such good English" 4. "Where are you really from?" #JHMchat |
| Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs @Abdi_Abdullahi_ @JHospMedicine @WrayCharles Welcome! Good to see you here #JHMchat |
 | Virgo Surgical Video @virgosvs RT @JHospMedicine: Welcome to tonight's #JHMChat - where we'll be discussing the important topic of racism in Medicine. Glad you've chosen to join the conversation. Let's take a few minutes to let people introduce themselves... I'm @WrayCharles and I'll be tonight's moderator |
| Meghan Fanta, MD @meghanfanta @DoctorVig @gradydoctor @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka I love this idea; regretting that I didn't do this during my last week of service. #jhmchat |
| Erin Shaughnessy MD @EShaughnessyMD Agree and it’s our job to mentor/ sponsor these more junior docs to remedy that gap #jhmchat |
| Anika Kumar, MD (she/her) @freckledpedidoc RT @FutureDocs: @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor I teach about research. A few years ago I was really struck by a conversation with my students about how racism is a risk factor NOT being African American...that really stuck with me and I try to call it out when I see this misused...all the time #jhmchat |
| Aanchal Thadani @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A1: In my 1st year of med school, there have been countless times I've heard "X disease is more common among Blacks." Very few times has that been followed up with the "WHY." We need to understand WHY to FIX it. #JHMChat |
| Areeba Kara @areeba_kara @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A1: as an immigrant physician I hardly notice the 'compliments' regarding my proficiency in English anymore, the overt comments regarding 'your kind' are harder to dismiss.#JHMChat |
| Brian McGillen, MD @BMcGillenMD @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka Agree @gradydoctor We also included it in patient rights/responsibilities policy. But policy isn't worth paper it's printed on without action...working with our Chief Diversity Officer (Lynette Chappelle-Williams...gotta name drop!) to put action behind those words! #jhmchat |
| Dr. Tsega @drtsega I oftentimes see racism manifest in dismissive descriptions of patients and their issues— “todo body dolor” is incredibly offensive but was also used regularly where I trained in residency. #JHMChat |
| Eileen Barrett MD MPH (she/her) @EileenBarrettNM RT @SocietyHospMed: Here we go! 🚀 Topic 1 of tonight's #JHMchat: Here we go! 🚀 Topic 1 of tonight's #JHMchat: |

| Sonja Raaum, MD, FACP @SonjaRaaum @annielintzenich @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor I love that. Seriously, there is an opportunity in every interaction. #jhmchat |
| Aanchal Thadani @aanchal_thadani @StudentDocAda @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor I can't imagine how difficult this must have been. I wonder what you do to gather yourself and return to the room. #JHMChat |
 | Igor Areinamo, MD @areinamo21 @JHospMedicine @WrayCharles Hello all, Igor Areinamo here. Pediatric cardiologist currently on my last year of critical care fellowship. Glad to be part of this #JHMchat. |
| Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @jennifermcaputo @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor Oh yes. I'm embarrassed to admit how many diseases I thought had true biologic differences in different races and how different treatments work better in different races. I didn't realize how deep using white as the norm and ignoring social determinants of health ran. #JHMChat |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @SonjaRaaum @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka Yes! Thank you for being an upstander. It makes SUCH a difference for those on the receiving end. #JHMChat |
| Christopher D. Jackson, MD @ChrisDJacksonMD @SocietyHospMed #JHMchat A1 In my residency class, there were four black men. We all looked different and had different backgrounds. One the wards and in the clinic, we were frequently called by someone’s else name with the excuse “it’s hard to tell black men apart” |
| Shu Garcia (he/him) @anueru432 @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A1. Im committed to pathology, and involved in the global community that we have here in twitter, I never thought that racism is relevant- Not until I attended Dr. White's lecture on Racism in Pathology- and until there is equal opportunities for all, there is racism. #JHMChat https://t.co/72qUjVSSYu |
| Areeba Kara @areeba_kara @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A1 I think we have all seen the intersection of race and health that COVID-19 has uncovered. #JHMChat. |

| Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMChat: a side note, but in general, labeling any patient, no matter their race, a “frequent flyer” leads to so many biases. A medical school attending called our team out on using the term and I have never since. |
| Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine @areinamo21 @WrayCharles Glad you're here, Igor #JHMChat |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @freckledpedidoc @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka Sigh. We know this too well. #JHMChat |

| Monica Verduzco-Gutierrez, MD @MVGutierrezMD @gradydoctor @StudentDocAda @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka That’s why there needs to be training in being an upstander. So faculty are ready to respond when it happens. (Just like you have to practice meditating to help you when you’re actually stressed). #JHMchat |
 | Tim_Higgins RN @TimHiggins_RN Thank you! Sharing with #NurseTwitter |
 | Kate Kyler, MD @kedkyler @JHospMedicine @WrayCharles Kate here, pediatric hospitalist at Children’s Mercy in KC. Looking forward to spending some time here tonight, learning and reflecting on such an important topic #JHMChat |
| Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood I LOVE THIS! @robertdaulton, we need to do this on Orange Team in August!! #JHMChat |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @EileenBarrettNM @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka A1. Thank you for your honesty. The more we pull the covers back on these things the less people can hide. #JHMChat |
| Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @STangGirdwood @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor Agree! Also, viewing “nonadherence” in patients as the root cause for poor outcomes and writing them off rather than treating nonadherence as a symptom of structural inequities that disproportionately impact marginalized communities. #JHMChat |
| Vignesh Doraiswamy, MD- MedPeds Hospitalist @DoctorVig @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A1. Part 2. Additionally as a brown skimmed man with a beard, it doesn't take a lot of imagination to think of all the micro and macro agressions that I've faced. It'still nothing compared to what many of my female and Black colleagues face. #JHMChat |
| Preeti R. John MD, MPH, FACS, FCCM, CPE, HEC-C @preeti_john @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka A female surgeon I know, wrote about how she experienced difference in treatment from patients when she wore her natural hair to work. I wonder what it is about natural hair that elicits blatant #racism from people? #JHMChat |
| Shu Garcia (he/him) @anueru432 RT @bmcgillen26: @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor As former chief of our (then) section, these came to my desk in the form of "I want a new doctor" requests. Intolerable and demoralizing for folks who just wanted to come to work to make their patients lives a little better. #jhmchat |
 | Yihan Yang, MD MHS-MedEd @YihanYangMD @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka Thank you so much for hosting this chat tonight @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor @NdidiUnaka! Just finished MedEd fellowship @YaleIMed, starting as academic hospitalist @UW_HospMed shortly. #JHMchat |

| Jon Lim, MD 🏳️🌈 @JonLimMD A1 I think of painful moments during training realizing and feeling the moral distress of being part of systems that produce disparities in care. Failure to help patients access care, overcome transportation inequities, access to regular dialysis rather than emergent #JHMChat |
 | Robbie Daulton @DrRobbieMD @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor T1: catching myself part way through my third year consistently including race in my one-liners for minority patients but never for white patients. I took a step back and was disheartened to realize I wasn't the only one doing it. #JHMChat #culturalhumility |
| Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed RT @DoctorVig: @gradydoctor @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka It's certainly not much, but I try to do what I call equity rounds at least once a week when on a resident service where we try to identify why it can be so hard for out patients to get the care we want them to. I hope that they see how the SDoH really play into all this.#JHMChat |

| Aanchal Thadani @aanchal_thadani @freckledpedidoc @gradydoctor @NdidiUnaka The name pronunciation hits home for me. It is really hard to feel respected and valued when people aren't willing to take the time to learn your name. #JHMChat |
| Areeba Kara @areeba_kara @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A3 : the actions of institutions will be far more telling than their words. We owe the next generations something better! #JHMChat |
| Vignesh Doraiswamy, MD- MedPeds Hospitalist @DoctorVig @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor Can't agree more. It is a very very low bar to set and can't be thought of as a simple check box. #JHMChat |

 | Dr. Danya Khoujah @DanyaKhoujah RT @NdidiUnaka: @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor YES! Education is important but it is not enough. Perspective taking/ empathy is key but not sufficient. There is an urgent need for ACTION to dismantle systemic racism. #JHMChat |

| Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A3: White people need to amplify voices, make room at or walk away from the table, & educate our/themselves on what our BIPOC colleagues and patients have experienced. It's hard wanting to get it right ASAP. There will be mistakes. We just need to keep moving forward. #JHMChat |

| Dr. Alissa Darden, MD @rockstardoc @SocietyHospMed A3. Diversity in students, residents, faculty and especially leadership. No one wants to be the “only” at an institution.#JHMchat |
| Vignesh Doraiswamy, MD- MedPeds Hospitalist @DoctorVig @FutureDocs @DrRGAcholonu @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor Silence is violence and in many ways microagressions are just products of racism and I almost feel guilty using the term sometimes as I feel it softens the blow of what's actually happening. #JHMChat |

| Payal Parikh, MD, FACP @Payalia320 @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A4: we have an early access med program at my institution that addresses the pipeline issue in the surrounding community.

| Ashley Jenkins @AJenkins_MD @STangGirdwood @NdidiUnaka @Payalia320 @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor It really has been disparities in health & healthcare I have witnessed as a #MedPeds hospitalist for those with sickle cell disease vs those with other conditions like cystic fibrosis that opened my eyes to how structural racism and oppression impacts health so directly. #JHMChat |
| Anika Kumar, MD (she/her) @freckledpedidoc RT @DoctorVig: @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka YES! Antiracist curricula are a must. Minimal bias training is such a low bar to set.

| Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed RT @JHospMedicine: With 5 minutes left in tonight's #JHMChat, please let us know what you've learned tonight? What might you do differently? How have discussions like this changed your viewpoint? |
| Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor #JHMChat Very recently removed name of racist founding dean from buildings. Division supports our own group of white allies & BIPOC faculty taking action to increase diversity among our faculty & improve clinical learning environment. DOM working to hire assoc chair for diversity |
| Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn RT @MDbenji: @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A2: 2. Change the representation of leadership - What's the makeup of your med school or residency leadership team? Not just diversity & inclusion director but chiefs, chairs, deans, program directors. Underrepresented minorities need to be at the table. #JHMchat 2/ |
| Anika Kumar, MD (she/her) @freckledpedidoc RT @gradydoctor: @freckledpedidoc @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka T4. It is ALL about the pipeline. You are so right. We have to give faculty time to do this work, though. These events take planning and effort. #JHMChat |
| Benji Mathews, MD MBA @MDbenji @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka A4: Well said @gradydoctor. Definitely can't be refuted! The verse relates to another favorite mantra, 'the heart of the matter is the matter of the heart.' Dismantling the structures of racism takes hearts and minds moved to action. Here to #DoTheWork ! #jhmchat |
| Ashley Jenkins @AJenkins_MD @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka T3: Totally agree that education re: structural & cultural competency, & anti-racism is a must. It should be a non-negotiable part of UME/GME/CME core curricula. like anything else in medicine, learners will all come in at different ‘levels’ and need for improvement. #JHMCHat |
| Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor We also have some amazing folks like @JWmsJr3 who have taught me that diversity and equity is not window dressing but foundational - bake it in from the start of everything you do as opposed to patch it on at end #jhmchat |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka A4. The community so often is left out of these discussions! I'm so glad you said that. Sometimes we make plans to do things that don't affirm our community stakeholders. Now I'm wondering if we should add a community member to our @EmoryDOMRyse council. Hmm. #JHMChat |
| Dr. Annie Andrews @AnnieAndrewsMD I want to be prepared to confidently confront racism when I witness it in the hospital. Thank you for this conversation @NdidiUnaka and @gradydoctor ❤️ #jhmchat |

 | Leonor Fernández, MD @lfernandezi #JHMChat also important to think about where the data comes from. HCAPS data may not include certain voices; need to make sure we elicit the complete data. |
 | Henry Cruz @RealCruzHenry RT @areeba_kara: @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor We measure what we value and we value what we measure- we need data on gender and race in the workforce and leadership and inclinical outcomes #JHMChat |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @MDbenji @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka A4. True story, Benji. #JHMChat https://t.co/Mj02nUoAgr |
| Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine Based on this #JHMChat, I plan to conduct equity rounds to discuss SDoH & how systemic racism may have led to patient health outcomes w/my team and discuss how to mitigate. I need to learn more about how to address overt acts of racism and microaggressions when I witness them. |
| Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed RT @annielintzenich: I want to be prepared to confidently confront racism when I witness it in the hospital. Thank you for this conversation @NdidiUnaka and @gradydoctor ❤️ #jhmchat |
| Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @EmoryDOMRyse Yes! Could not agree more! The voice of the community we serve is often stifled. Great reminder! #JHMChat |
| Trisha Marshall @TMarshall_MD @JHospMedicine I am going to take a hard look at how I practice medicine, teach learners of all levels, and approach QI/research so that I can be more thoughtful and intentional in being anti-racist #jhmchat |
| Jon Lim, MD 🏳️🌈 @JonLimMD Thanks @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor @NdidiUnaka for tonight's #JHMchat. So many great things done by @bcm_equity. Loved hearing all the great work and systems changes at other institutions during tonight's chat. |
| Anika Kumar, MD (she/her) @freckledpedidoc @JHospMedicine I learned that I have colleagues who are passionate & I can turn to for guidance as I continue to address the structural racism that exists in medicine #JHMChat |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @JWmsJr3 A4. There has been a lot of window dressing in the past. I am hopeful that we are moving toward something foundational now that the need is so clear. #JHMChat |
| Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs @gradydoctor @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @EmoryDOMRyse Yes! I really think our patients help center so many efforts #JHMchat |
| Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine Officially, that's a wrap for tonight's #JHMChat on racism in medicine. But please feel free to continue this conversation... |
| Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine I love your thoughts on rounds!! #JHMChat |
| Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @DoctorVig @NdidiUnaka @jennifermcaputo @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor I've wondered if we could set up a fund for students, even for things like question banks or books, application expenses, etc. Something faculty could donate to and show support. Just not sure how disbursement would work. #JHMChat |
| Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs RT @gradydoctor: @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @JWmsJr3 A4. There has been a lot of window dressing in the past. I am hopeful that we are moving toward something foundational now that the need is so clear. #JHMChat |
| The Blonde Broker @gracefarris A4 Institution has diversity efforts but I will say that at the DOM or division level need to be aggressive about hiring BIPOC faculty. Blaming pipeline is not acceptable #jhmchat |
 | Rohini Harvey @RohiniHarvey @wwchang @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor Our PHM division is small enough to get stuff done. The institutional level feels like moving mountains but thankfully we’re starting that process. #JHMChat |
| Elisha McCoy @elisha_mccoy @JHospMedicine So much to process and so thankful for all the voices tonight. For starters...I will commit to continuing these conversations with my @UTHSCMedicine trainees and @uthsc residents #JHMChat #payitforward |

| Rebecca Jaffe, MD @RJmdphilly So sorry to have missed tonight! BUT instead of #jhmchat I just explained how babies are made to an 8 year old and a 5 year old so I would say my work is done for tonight... |
| Preeti R. John MD, MPH, FACS, FCCM, CPE, HEC-C @preeti_john @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A4 Perhaps focusing on certain specialty organizations / societies would be worthwhile - encouraging dialogue amongst those physicians & leaders - like the ones with fewer minority physicians (?neurosurgery ?orthopedicsurgery ?radiationoncology) #JHMChat |
| Payal Parikh, MD, FACP @Payalia320 @JHospMedicine I learned of the collective passion to change the current state of affairs. Hearing all your ideas, we can band together to move this needle! Employing the principles of #healthsystemscience to allow a root cause analysis and allow for systemic change is what we need! #JHMchat |
| Weijen Chang @wwchang @JHospMedicine I feel like it's Day 1 in the MICU as a resident - so much to do, so much acuity, and I feel totally unprepared. But when you see you have a good team around you.... you feel like, maybe we can do this. #jhmchat |
| Kimberly D. Manning, MD @gradydoctor @robertdaulton @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka A4. We have been meeting tons about this. Main steps: 1. Exposure to residents 2. Permission to speak freely with #1. 3. Transparency in numbers, strategic plan, and in recent experiences. 4. Diversity in leadership. 5. Feedback for autocorrection. #JHMChat |

| Jeff Dewey, MD, MHS @DeweyLovesNeuro @JHospMedicine Time to make sure we’re talking about disparity and the effect of systemic racism in every neurologic disease category with our clerkship students. Much to learn. #jhmchat |
| Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @anueru432 @freckledpedidoc @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor I think the idea of wanting to be viewed as a model minority has often prevented my speaking up against racism when I saw it...because I don’t want to stir up trouble. And what it ends up doing is boxing me into the stereotype that Asians are quiet and fall in line. #JHMChat |
| Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @DeweyLovesNeuro @MDbenji @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor Still find myself surprised when I see a Black patient with CF or MS. It's drilled in so much that these are white diseases. They're just diseases! #JHMChat |

| Anika Kumar, MD (she/her) @freckledpedidoc @STangGirdwood @anueru432 @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor Yes.

 | Yamini Kuchipudi @YaminiKuchipudi RT @NdidiUnaka: @STangGirdwood @aanchal_thadani @JHospMedicine @gradydoctor Agree! Also, viewing “nonadherence” in patients as the root cause for poor outcomes and writing them off rather than treating nonadherence as a symptom of structural inequities that disproportionately impact marginalized communities. #JHMChat |

So glad you mentioned the work @DrQuinnCapers4 et. al are doing at @OhioStateMed. The key is a robust pipeline and counter narrative images. #JHMChat |
| Kristyn Jeffries, MD, MPH @DrKJeffries I LOVE this idea! We are all listening and learning and this seems like a great time/space to start these discussions with residents. Thoughts? @JessBetten @kedkyler @joylynnsolano @jackiewalkermd @MollyKrager |
 | Christle Nwora, MD @ChristleNwora @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor T3: I reject that this is the burden that Black learners, staff and faculty must carry. If Black people do anything, it is protect our peace and choose our level of engagement wisely. Doesn’t excuse us all from learning and unlearning! #JHMChat |
| Christle Nwora, MD @ChristleNwora @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor T2: Money. Give generously to scholarships, pipline programs and offices of diversity and inclusion. #JHMChat |

| DIVA DOCS BOSTON @divadocsbos RT @gradydoctor: @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka T3. Simple places to start include: 1. Pictures on the walls and on the website. 2. Pronouncing names correctly. 3. Diversity in leadership. 4. Affinity groups. 5. Cultural competence and antiracism curricula What would you all add? #JHMChat |
| Paramedic Bucari @BucariIskinder @SocietyHospMed #JHMChat A3 One of the biggest issues that I can see is the fact that there are too few of us that see ourselves becoming physicians in the first place. It isn't as much if a "real" achievable goal as, say for instance, becoming a Firefighter or Sanitation Workers. |

We have to earn their trusting the institution as a whole. #JHMChat |
| Kat Duncan, MD @DrKatDuncan RT @DrRGAcholonu: @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka @gradydoctor A3/All need to recognize the impact of microaggressions on the learning environment. White people can learn how to be upstanders and address something in the moment. Silence is deafening. #JHMChat |

It's hard wanting to get it right ASAP. There will be mistakes. We just need to keep moving forward. #JHMChat |
| Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka RT @gradydoctor: @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka T3: @JHospMedicine @NdidiUnaka T3: It's hard to be what you don't see. And it's also hard to feel comfortable when you are the only or "othered" all the time. It's critical to create the psychological safety to bring your WHOLE authentic self to work. Assimilation can be exhausting. #JHMChat |

| DIVA DOCS BOSTON @divadocsbos RT @ChrisDJacksonMD: @SocietyHospMed #JHMchat A2 Enhancing pipeline programs is key. I never saw a black physician in life until I did a program called Call Me Doctor sponsored by NAMME as a senior in high school. Just seeing people that looked like me gave me hope that I could achieve the dream of being a doctor! |
