In early April, it emerged that a Marxist, pro-Hamas, anti-American guest speaker gave a two-hour-long lecture at the UCLA Geffen School that included an invocation to kneel in prayer to momma earth and stand up and scream for Hamas. This proves that Marxist ideological argot, the canons of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI), intersectionality, and critical race theory have infiltrated American medicine.
The Supreme Court has established that DEI (i.e., reverse discrimination) violates the Constitution when it comes to admissions:

[T]he Harvard and UNC admissions programs cannot be reconciled with the guarantees of the Equal Protection Clause.

Many universities have for too long done just the opposite. And in doing so, they have concluded, wrongly, that the touchstone of an individual’s identity is not challenges bested, skills built, or lessons learned but the color of their skin. Our constitutional history does not tolerate that choice.
Large institutions such as UCLA grab the headlines, but this is a problem across American medicine.
The Charles Drew University Medical School (CDU), a private medical school in Willowbrook, California (which is really Watts), was founded in response to political pressure after the Watts Riots of 1966. The school is small (approximately 550 students) and doesn’t offer medical science classes. Instead, students UCLA for the basics, with CDU providing some clinical exposure for third- and fourth-year students, but has no decent teaching hospital. It does race-based, postgraduate research and has physician’s assistants and nursing programs.

The programs are also black-centric to the point of illegality, something that an organization called Do No Harm (DNH) brought to light. DNH is a medical advocacy group that Dr. Stanley Goldfarb founded after the University of Pennsylvania forcibly “retired” him when he wrote an essay for the Wall Street Journal challenging medical schools’ focus on social justice rather than medicine.
In the essay, Dr. Goldfarb argued that medicine must remain a science-guided profession that is color-blind and focuses solely on treating illness. He condemned how medical schools’ obsession with “diversity” negatively affected medical research and scientific practices. In other words, Dr. Goldfarb has the old-fashioned idea that physicians should pay attention to good medical care for their patients and not be recruited to be soldiers for a Marxist socialist cultural conquest.
