Americans are terrified about the rising tide of radicalism in higher education. As the recent anti-Semitic protests on many campuses proved, some of our most prestigious institutions have swapped learning for indoctrination, training future leaders to be discriminatory activists instead of paragons of excellence. Yet this cancerous trend is especially dangerous at medical schools, because elevating ideology over education is a direct threat to patient health and well-being.
As physicians with a combined 85 years of experience, we’re terrified about the corruption of medical school. They’ve embraced so-called “diversity, equity, and inclusion,” which, despite its name, cultivates racial division and discrimination. We fully acknowledge that racial disparities exist in health care and need to be tackled. Yet medical schools, under the guise of DEI, are teaching future physicians to focus on politics and patients’ identity rather than actually caring for them. Medical schools’ teaching hospitals are even planning to prioritize patients by skin color, not the severity of their condition.
