Washington University in St. Louis lecturer warns medical students not to challenge her 'anti-racism' training as she insists medicine 'has a really bad racism issue'
Daily Mail ^

Kaytlin Reedy-Rogier is named on Washington University in St. Louis's website as a co-lead, community engagement, in the Understanding Systemic Racism Team.

In a lecture obtained by Fox News, which they said was delivered recently, Reedy-Rogier tells a class of medical students their profession is inherently racist.

'We are very firm in race being a social construct, and that that has implications for how we practice medicine,' Reedy-Rogier said.

'That has implications for how we understand research, and that has implications for how we understand health disparity.

'And so when we are asking you all to engage in this, we're really asking you to think about your own identities, and what that means to be anti-racist, which is an active stance in medicine that we know has a really bad racism issue.'

In a confusing warning to students, she said she was 'always' open to hearing an opposing point of view, but then told them she would not tolerate dissent.

'I have a really hard time being neutral around issues of systemic oppression,' she said.

'So oftentimes you will know how I feel.

'This does not mean that I am opposed to hearing other perspectives. I would like to be very clear about that: I am always willing to engage in dialogue with folks that may disagree with me. Always.

'And I will not think less of you, nor will I try to fight you or debate you.

'And in fact, if you try to fight me or debate me, I will shut that s*** down real fast.'

The lecture is part of Washington University's 'Health Equity & Justice' lessons, Fox reported, which is included in the medical school's required 'Gateway Curriculum' that was rolled out in 2020.

The faculty appears to put a strong emphasis on 'woke' training.

I think all schools like this should put a big Woke Seal on their diplomas so people seeking medical care can beware

Considering that the medical field is racist, perhaps they should not use it.

Witchdoctors and shamans for them.

A “lecturer”... Is that the same as like, you know, a “doctor”?

Great, some lunatic browbeating med students.

Can’t really blame her. She knows it’s all BS, her “job”. But I bet it pays better than being a doctor, and she’s dumb as a post most likely. So that’s pretty smart if you want to look at it that way. Mandatory Hate Whitey Classes, and get paid for it. No residency requirements, just spout off a bunch of nonsense all day.

IOW, this class is a waste of everyone’s time. Besides, she is white and is congenitally racist according to current dogma. Beware the white devil!

I did my undergraduate studies at Washington University back in ancient times. I had good professors who are spinning in their graves at this kind of talk.

She’s a political officer. The Soviets inserted commissars everywhere to enforce obedience to the state. This is what communism looks like.
