In 2018, 90% of U.S. medical schools had three or fewer AI-AN students. Six medical schools enrolled 40% of all AI-AN students. #MedEd - we have a problem.

Proud to be part of this org and work with these dynamite fellow medical students! Racism, a pandemic that has gripped our nation for years, was recognized today by AMA as a public health threat. It is a big step, but only the first step of many. The work continues!
