Leaving Boston Harvard University #MedEd course after lecturing on racial bias in medicine. This lecture will soon be be banned in certain states. But Racial bias is real. It impacts medicine and health. Banning conversations about it won’t make it go away. Only we can do that. Together.

And we’re off! The 3rd cohort of American College of Cardiology’s IM Mentoring program for Black residents. These 60 aspiring cardiologists will learn the ins & outs of our specialty this AM. Our goal is to demystify the specialty and help them to be competitive applicants for cardiology training.

Breaking news. More details to come. I am deeply honored and grateful for this full circle moment 🙏🏾

Just finished my last lecture (and 3rd in the series) to @UTSWNews cardiology fellows. Lecture 1: “Racial Disparities in🫀care” Lecture 2: “Importance of Scholarship in #DEI” Lecture 3: “Mitigating #ImplicitBias in Medicine” They get it. My job here is done ✌🏾

#BlackHistoryMonth  Black doctors were once denied admitting privileges at hospitals. They were forced to start their own. Proud to have been born in one of those “Black hospitals” 🏥 in Cleveland, OH. Yrs ago, I tracked down & got to shake hands with the OBGYN that delivered me

Thanks NIH for the invitation to give Grand Rounds. I encourage you to “Battle the Anti-Diversity Backlash with Data.” More Black & Brown Drs means: 1) improved care for disadvantaged communities; 2) increased cultural competency of ALL Drs. Here’s to more Howard University-NIH collab

That Feeling When you’re on a mission to tell anyone who will listen: more Black and Brown Drs and scientists will save more lives, make the science more impactful, and reduce healthcare disparities. Not just my opinion, the evidence says so. #StayOnMission

Quinn Capers, III never finished Talladega College College. By his own admission, too much partying, not enough studying. So he joined U.S. Air Force and the police dept. But his kids all earned doctorates (L-R: MD, PsyD, Ed.D). We finished what you started, Dad. #HappyThanksgiving
