Just out of curiosity, retweet if you were told by a teacher or advisor you couldn’t be where you are today.

CORY BOOKER LET Y’ALL IN ON A SECRET: For many Black folks in so-called “elite” jobs/organizations, it’s SERVICE STAFF who keep us motivated… encouraged… uplifted. “I see you, doc!” “Keep it up, young man!” “How’s it going my brother?” We treasure this kinship!

Maaaan listen. Dr. “Dad” MD, FAAP, FASN just preached a whole sermon in that tweet. Whew! I wish I had time to tell somebody about the service staff and patients give us wings on the days when the world convinces you that you can't fly. Whew. #whentheyseeus

Y’all. I did my first lap chole!! Was I awkward? Absolutely lol. BUT I DID IT!! 🥰 Thankful for attendings, who are patient & who not only teach, but also affirm, all during one case!

Although today’s #NationalDoctorsDay, hopeful to celebrate it by attending this event on Friday! Excited to learn as much as possible from such an incredible lineup of surgeons!!

100% this event! 😍 Absolutely amazing & inspiring!! Thank you to the incredible panelists & Socially Responsible Surgery: KUMC for hosting!

So excited to get my sister’s Michelle L. Hill TheBlackSunflower 🖤🌻 FIRST book of beautiful short stories & poems! Be sure to grab yours!! #Avalokita #KCKauthor #soproud #theBlackSunflower 💛 theblacksunflower.com/shop/?fbclid=I…

Rest Well Dr Nakita Mortimer 😔 Residency programs across the country need systemic and institutional overhauls. Residents (we) are struggling. We lost another bright light too soon. #Residency #SuicideAwareness #InstitutionalOppression #ResidentPhysicians

Had a great time at my first Academic Surgical Congress meeting, & was inspired by Callisia Clarke MD & her thoughtful & empowering Assoc4AcademicSurgery Presidential Address #ASC2025 #hiddenfigures #bendneverbreak
