We are heartbroken from the violent acts that happened in our community last night where 8 people were murdered, including 6 Asian women. Our hearts go out to the victims and family members who were impacted by these violent acts. We grieve with you. #StopAAPIHate #StopAsianHate

We're not "shocked & saddened" we're devastated and angry. Don't be sending your thoughts and prayers to our comrades. Your shock is part of the problem.
Fight with us to end white supremacy, or get out the way.

Wealth, status, and education does not lower the chances of Black birthing people experiencing birth complications - it actually increases it! Just ask @Beyonce & @serenawilliams Black women should be listened to when they voice their concerns about their pregnancy.

Rebecca Dekker wanted to focus on the data, but quickly learned that if you really want to make an impact and connect with your audience, you just have to tell your story: convertk.it/rebecca-pod-tw @BirthEvidence #CreatorStory #creatingbravely #createeveryday #IAmACreator

At least 5,000 counterfeit copies have been sold on @Amazon. Your customers are upset over the extensive #counterfeit operation of the #1 bestseller #realfoodforpregnancy that you fail to investigate. Shame on @AmazonKDP @amazon @JeffBezos #indieauthors

It really does matter that medicine starts getting its definitions and uses of race correct. What an exciting honor to work with this team, and to see my name in @nejm next to @dorothyeroberts. nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…

Racists have used “intimidation” to justify their violence against Black people for ages.
This is why we need accountability systems that are run by and for BIPOC to be truly heard and treated with respect.

Watching some non-Black Physicians do backflips to argue that Dr. Susan Moore did not experience racism is not surprising, but is truly terrifying. Medicine is not ready to face the racism it was built on. #believeblackwomen

“If a physician can’t be heard by her own peers to save her life, then who will listen?“ - written in solidarity w/ @uche_blackstock @CamaraJones @doccrearperry and for all of our voices not heard & undervalued. #sayhername #DrSusanMoore #healthjusticenow washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

Dear everyone- please remember that a Pap smear is a CANCER SCREENING and that sending 21 year olds who have never had sex (many + gardasil) for a cancer screening for an HPV mediated cancer to a gynecologist may be terrifying and causes more harm than good

As an ObGyn resident @uoftobgyn and a master’s student in Clin Epi @ihpmeuoft performing research using population-based health admin data, here are two quick thoughts on this paper which has generated significant discussion (not meant to be a critical appraisal) 1/10.
