As a white person who had been taken very seriously in an ER about a panic attack (with a history of anxiety no one asked about) I’ve first hand seen the effects of race in hospitals. I recognize my privilege which shouldn’t exist, and the life threatening situations that occur from nurses and doctors who simply don’t care enough about their patients terrifies me. If they can simply turn off their care for some, they shouldn’t be practicing medicine.
