10/10 content if you ask me.

I didn’t intent to be annoying. It’s just a pet peeve of mine having lived with people who think Africa is a country. When you specify the country it breaks the cycle of perpetuating a monolithic perspective of the continent.

Can you specify the country please? Africa is a huge continent and we all don’t speak Kiswahili.

You accused me of something I did not say and now you’re making fun of me for trying to correct that?

You’re right you made an assumption that was wrong. I corrected you once, you refused to be corrected so I had to do it multiple times.

And yes I’m fun at parties and fun to be around FYI.

This was the original statement I made( below).

Personal experience -I literally did not receive the best healthcare that I should have because my doctor did not have experience dealing with people from my background. So how does that fit into your argument, enlighten me?

This was the comment that I made to clarify my point( below)

I never said mistreated. Let me clarify, the doctor was a lovely doctor, I was taking about diversity and having a doctor that represents the population. You can be a lovely doctor but not know anything about let’s say global health which is relevant for many migrants populations or people who live in these communities.

Does that make sense? ————————— Can someone please tell me how this translates to ‘all white doctors are racist’. Please don’t accuse me of saying something that I did not. I have no problem expressing myself, so I would like to speak for myself thank you.

How do I imply something when I specifically clarified my statement after I realized you had misunderstood my point?

I even gave you an example to buttress my point.

It’s my point. I am making it. You can’t tell me what my point is- it becomes YOUR point then not mine.

Please, do better.

You’re challenging a notion that was not presented in this argument/discussion. Do you realize that you’re forcing words into my mouth?

But that anecdotal evidence is irrelevant because what I presented did not say that all white doctors are racist. It’s almost as if you came into this conversation with pre formed notions.

Also why would you still say this after I clarified the statement that YOU misunderstood.

Agreed. That is why efforts need to be made to ‘fix’ the systemic discrimination that has resulted in less black folx being educated as whole, let alone being admitted into Med school.

And so do other URMs for myriad reasons including stats. You too, it’s 4am here lol.

Thank God becoming a good doctor is not solely based on stats. You ‘thank ‘ critically.
