=== Consequences of Structural Racism (11:40) ===

[00:00:03]  Hello, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
[00:00:07]  The internet is trying to make sure no one sees my videos.
[00:00:10]  So if you like this one, I hope you'll send the link to a lot of people.
[00:00:14]  Is your doctor competent?
[00:00:16]  For years, whites and Asians have had to be a lot better qualified than blacks or Hispanics to get into medical school.
[00:00:23]  You have every reason to be suspicious of a doctor of color.
[00:00:28]  But now the entire medical profession is going through a form of mass insanity that casts doubt on all doctors.
[00:00:35]  But let's start with qualifications.
[00:00:38]  Here are data for the doctors who are just starting to practice now.
[00:00:42]  The figures are in three groups according to qualifications.
[00:00:47]  The bars on the left were the chances of getting into medical school with a low MCAT score, that's the medical college admissions test, of 24 to 26 and a GPA of only 3.2 to 3.39.
[00:01:03]  Asians, the light blue bar, had only a 6% chance of being admitted, and whites and gray had an 8% chance.
[00:01:11]  But Hispanics with low scores and grades, the dark blue bar, had a 31% chance and blacks had a 56% chance of getting in.
[00:01:20]  Look at the results for the better qualified applicants.
[00:01:24]  Being black or Hispanic is a huge advantage.
[00:01:27]  This has been the case for decades.
[00:01:30]  But a thick new form of madness has spread over medicine.
[00:01:34]  An anti-racism rampage that has several goals.
[00:01:38]  Turn more blacks and Hispanics into doctors no matter what.
[00:01:42]  Make sure everyone in medicine is battling structural racism and white supremacy every moment of the day.
[00:01:50]  Blame society, and especially white doctors, for the bad health of people of color.
[00:01:56]  Center treatment of non-whites, which means treat them better.
[00:02:01]  And, of course, persecute anyone who opposes this craziness.
[00:02:05]  It's a matter of blind faith that underrepresented minorities, that's blacks and Hispanics and sometimes American Indians, are just as smart and hardworking as whites and Asians.
[00:02:17]  Asians are the overrepresented minority.
[00:02:21]  And that's why people write articles like this with a straight face.
[00:02:25]  The Consequences of Structural Racism on MCAT Scores and Medical School Admissions.
[00:02:32]  The article sorrows over low black and Hispanic scores and even admits the test isn't biased.
[00:02:39]  It then asserts, as if by divine revelation, that the problem is structural racism.
[00:02:45]  Ability has nothing to do with it.
[00:02:48]  Medical schools should junk the MCAT, or at least realize that low-scoring blacks and Hispanics will make wonderful doctors who will lead the fight against structural racism.
[00:03:00]  That's why...
[00:03:01]  Penn Medical School expands minority candidate program that does not require MCAT.
[00:03:07]  Preferred minorities can skip the test and be admitted with a GPA of 3.2 instead of the usual 3.89.
[00:03:16]  Here's another crazy article.
[00:03:19]  Association between resident race and ethnicity and clinical performance assessment scores.
[00:03:25]  It bravely reports that Black and Hispanic doctors in residency training score worse than whites on every standard of evaluation.
[00:03:35]  There's not a single area in which they are even as good.
[00:03:39]  The authors can think of only three possible reasons.
[00:03:43]  Bias in faculty assessment, effects of a non-inclusive learning environment, or structural inequities in assessment.
[00:03:53]  Forget about how much standards were lowered just to get them into med school.
[00:03:57]  Don't even imagine there could be such a thing as race differences in average IQ.
[00:04:03]  Their bad evaluations cannot be their fault.
[00:04:07]  The entire medical profession is too terrified to denounce this rubbish.
[00:04:12]  With one exception, it seems.
[00:04:14]  Dr. Stanley Goldfarb of Penn Medical School read the article about bad ratings for black and Hispanic residents and tweeted, Could it be they were just less good at being residents?
[00:04:26]  Horrors! Impossible!
[00:04:28]  One Twitter user said Dr. Goldfarb might be the most garbage human I've seen with my own eyes.
[00:04:36]  Within hours of his tweet, the dean of Dr. Goldfarb's medical school emailed all students and faculty a classic of self-righteousness and bootlicking.
[00:04:47]  He deplored Dr. Goldfarb's racist statements and acknowledged the deep pain and anger they had caused.
[00:04:56]  He claimed the medical school's greatest strength was diversity and said structural racism makes non-whites sick.
[00:05:04]  And he promised that the school's entire leadership team was standing by to console the traumatized.
[00:05:11]  No, those darling black and Hispanic residents could not have been lousy at their jobs.
[00:05:17]  Needless to say, there's now a petition to remove Dr. Coldfarb from U.S.
[00:05:24]  You see, he's guilty of other crimes.
[00:05:27]  He runs an organization called Do No Harm, which just released a report called Only DEI Advocates Need Apply.
[00:05:36]  American medical schools make sure that all applicants babble anti-racist claptrap.
[00:05:42]  Duke University tells them, Describe your understanding of race and its relationship to inequities in health and healthcare.
[00:05:51]  Yale has a required essay.
[00:05:54]  Yale's School of Medicine values diversity in all its forms.
[00:05:58]  How will your background and experiences contribute to this important focus of our institution and inform your future role as a physician?
[00:06:08]  University of Minnesota, our country is reckoning with its history, racism, Anyone who says there's no such thing as systemic racism has no chance of getting in.
[00:06:33]  Only zombies need apply.
[00:06:36]  Med school is now as much about brainwashing as medicine.
[00:06:41]  The Association of American Medical Colleges accredits medical schools and tells them what to teach.
[00:06:47]  It has just published new standards in medical education.
[00:06:51]  Diversity, equity, and inclusion competencies across the learning continuum.
[00:06:57]  Right on page 2, it insists on improved integration of diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-racism in medical education and training.
[00:07:09]  This means disrupting the perpetuation of racist ideologies and practices in all aspects of the curriculum, including teachers, learners, and content.
[00:07:21]  Where is the racism in neurology, anatomy, or pediatrics?
[00:07:27]  Well, it turns out that every med school course is stuffed with white supremacy.
[00:07:33]  Colonization, institutional racism, interpersonal racism, structural racism, internalized racism, and countless other horrors.
[00:07:42]  And of course, doctors must learn that race is a social construct that is a cause of health and health care inequities, not a risk factor for disease.
[00:07:54]  Race is an excuse for white doctors to persecute blacks and Hispanics, but somehow not Asians.
[00:08:02]  Patients of color are never sick because they are fat, misappointments, forget to take medicine, can't read, shoot each other, or because of genetic differences.
[00:08:13]  Med schools everywhere are turning their courses inside out.
[00:08:17]  The medical program at University of Michigan has an anti-racism oversight committee, which has issued an action plan report.
[00:08:26]  It will identify practices that contribute to racism and discrimination and will identify an approach that achieves an anti-racist culture and identify metrics to track the progress and outcomes.
[00:08:40]  Metrics. How do you measure the success of an anti-racist culture?
[00:08:46]  I shudder to think.
[00:08:49]  The American Medical Association has gone predictably nuts with an organizational strategic plan to embed racial justice and advance health equity.
[00:08:58]  It's not joking about equity.
[00:09:01]  In 86 pages of Twaddle, it uses the word 454 times.
[00:09:07]  It also blasts the myth of meritocracy, a narrative that attributes success or failure to individual abilities and merits.
[00:09:17]  Last year, the National Institutes of Health, the biggest medical grantmaker in the U.S. by far, announced that NIH leaders detail commitment to end structural racism in biomedical science.
[00:09:31]  A gigantic task.
[00:09:33]  You can imagine the pork, bologna, and glassy-eyed piety in all this.
[00:09:39]  But if you apply for a grant, Ultimately, fighting structural racism means deliberately treating preferred minorities better than whites.
[00:09:57]  This first came to attention during COVID.
[00:10:00]  Food and Drug Administration guidance drives racial rationing of COVID drugs.
[00:10:05]  The FDA said that giving scarce drugs to blacks and Hispanics first Compensates them for systematic health and social inequities.
[00:10:15]  Two Boston doctors have come up with an anti-racist agenda for medicine in which they say that colorblind medical treatment isn't good enough.
[00:10:24]  There must be medical restitution, which must be pursued at the institutional level.
[00:10:31]  This means centering Black and Latinx patients, deliberately giving them better treatment.
[00:10:38]  And Whitey better keep his mouth shut.
[00:10:41]  Dr. Edward Livingston used to be one of the top editors at the once prestigious Journal of the American Medical Association, but not anymore.
[00:10:50]  JAMA editor resigns over a controversial podcast.
[00:10:54]  What did the poor boy say?
[00:10:57]  Structural racism is an unfortunate term.
[00:11:00]  Personally, I think taking racism out of the conversation will help.
[00:11:04]  Many of us are offended by the concept that we are racist.
[00:11:08]  How dare a white man think he's not racist?
[00:11:11]  He was out, quick as a wink, and JAMA officially pronounced his words inaccurate, offensive, hurtful, and inconsistent with the standards of JAMA.
[00:11:21]  JAMA's standards?
[00:11:23]  Structural racism is real, pernicious, and pervasive in healthcare.
[00:11:28]  And so, the top editor had to grovel and resign, too.

=== White Guilt's Demands (02:04) ===

[00:11:33]  Guess who's the new editor-in-chief?
[00:11:36]  Kirsten Bibbins Domingo, a black woman, a DEI champion who specializes in health equity.
[00:11:44]  She'll whip those sorry white men into line.
[00:11:47]  This is what white people get for their unspeakable cowardice.
[00:11:51]  They must never defend themselves.
[00:11:53]  They must confess perpetual guilt.
[00:11:56]  They must turn their institutions and their jobs over to people who built their careers on resentment.
[00:12:02]  And white doctors will help build a system in which their own people will be at the back of the bus for treatment.
[00:12:09]  And some of it we saw so long ago.
[00:12:13]  Patrick Chavis went to UC Davis Medical School in 1973 under a program to let in underqualified blacks.
[00:12:21]  He became a doctor, but the New York Times was surprisingly frank about his sad career.
[00:12:27]  At first, he was heralded as the great black hope.
[00:12:31]  In 1996, Senator Ted Kennedy called him the perfect example of how affirmative action should work.
[00:12:37]  In fact, he bungled so many operations he was sued 21 times for malpractice.
[00:12:43]  The year after Kennedy praised him, California suspended his medical license, saying he had an inability to perform some of the most basic duties required of a physician.
[00:12:54]  He kept doing surgery anyway, and one of his patients bled to death.
[00:12:59]  20 years ago, Someone shot and killed him.
[00:13:02]  Robbery? Carjacking?
[00:13:04]  Maybe an angry former patient?
[00:13:07]  The crime was never solved.
[00:13:09]  Are white people utterly incapable of learning?
[00:13:13]  I think I'll send a contribution to Stanley Goldfarb's organization.
[00:13:29]  You'll find videos, podcasts, discussions, many things I'm sure will interest you.
