The problem really isn't URM vs ORM. The real diversity issue is social class. < I agree with this but I do think if an URM and an ORM are both the same social class the URM still has so many extra barriers to climbing the socioeconomic ladder. So not sure socioecomoic class in isolation is better than race in isolation < they are not ready for this conversation < Derm doesn't care about socioeconomic class. The URM/DEI/SOC faction want you to go by race/skin color. Plan accordingly when it comes to rotations.
Yeah people on twitter asking for free stuff when they clearly are more well off than most people was over the top. The access to medicine is a big problem and people who grew up well off are not running to go practice outside of urban areas. < lololol < well, med grad list is not based on income. it is for urm students in general, rich or poor. < that's why it's sleazy < to you and people like you. < Yes, to people who actually have a conscience. You're exempt.
both things can be true. we can advocate for medicine to be more accessible to student from low ses families. while also advocating that asians not make be 22% of derm when they are 6% of the population when black and brown people combined make up less than 7%. < 67% of med students don't have college debt. Lol, overall I agree that people without money have huge barriers into this career. < Asians being in Dermatology is not the problem. Stop picking on them. I say that as a URM. < real issues are teh asians and southeast asians trying to invite URMs and non URMs to the parties but because of societal trust issues we're not having parties anymore these days
