Address Racial Disparity in Medicine

Despite Institutions studying these health disparities, ethnic minorities (African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, Asian-Americans, and immigrants from around the world) still face a series of biases that may limit their access to routine procedures have their self-described pain not taken seriously and results in a misdiagnosis rate of 20-30% per a Johns Hopkins Professor and lead author of a British Medical Journal study on the consequences of racism in American Medicine. The greatest way we can help protect Americans suffering from this medical racism is by providing grants to ethnic minorities to help cover the cost of attending Medical School and by funding research to help us better understand how we can address the systemic natures or racism in medicine.
