Pro tip: Don't ever assume the role of a person in a patient's room. I've asked "Is this your daughter?" ...it was his son. I've asked "is this your wife?" ...it was his daughter. It can get awkward. Now I say, "And you are his...?"

I was just discussing with a neighbor (with a PhD in neuroscience) how doctors turn studies about medical racism into more medical bias-- as a Black woman I get treated like my BLACKNESS puts me at more risk for health problems when the problem is the ANTI-BLACKNESS of doctors.
