The New England Journal of Medicine has been strongly criticized for publishing an academic paper calling for medical students to be taught in racially-segregated groups, with the idea condemned as 'morally abhorrent'.
The article, written by seven academics, doctors and students at the University of California, San Francisco, was published by the esteemed journal on April 27.
It calls for 'new approaches' to teaching - namely, dividing students based on the color of their skin.
'The approach tailors areas of focus to each identity group to supplement and differentiate the education received in racially integrated spaces, enabling participants to progress more effectively through the next stages of learning,' the authors write.
They argue that segregating students - 'as part of a broader antiracism and antioppression curriculum' - allows different groups to discuss their own experiences without fear.
'Founded on legacies of colonialism and racism, medical education has historically centered White learners and continues to perpetuate structural racism,' they write.
'Pedagogical approaches often center White learners and ignore the differential impact of content on BIPOC learners (Black, Indigenous, or people of color) with personal experiences of racism that are nuanced and have been informed by interactions and observations over their lifetimes.'

Be that as it may, segregation is coming back big time and it won’t be right wingers doing it.
That’s fine by me. Just do not ask me to have the other race work on me.
I don’t know about this.
In MY medical school, we only allowed HUMANS in classes.
This worked out pretty well, I think.
Let the other races start their own schools.
This is beyond stupid. Beyond.
With what has gone on for the last 10 or so years, I am fully supportive of 100% Segregation, No White person should be required to subsidize black people’s living needs and expenses either. Only black people should pay for other black people to live.
It’s incredible to see what indoctrination does to otherwise learned individuals.
I never thought this could happen.
Total Bull S^^T! These morons should be fired and NEVER be allow near a classroom again, ever!
oops, allowed
We get angry, but we should specifically be scared.
This is scary.
Let me guess, they would probably want Sulu and Uhura serving on all Asian or all black Federation starships if they were to recreate the TOS series.
“it won’t be right wingers doing it.”
It will be Democrats doing it, as usual.
Neo-Maoists. We must keep the conflict alive! You can’t have the mixing of races, you know. People may collaborate, develop new ideas, learn, think freely, and get along. That’s all “white patriarchy,” though. The struggle is forever, comrades.
Over 50 years ago, Gov. George Wallace, a Democrat, said, “segregation now, segregation tomorrow and segregation forever”.
The Democrats have gone full circle.
And why is it "morally" abhorrent?.
Lester Maddox, George Wallace, William Fullbright, etc., smiling down from beyond the grave...MLK just cries for his foolish people...
Or Sulu and LGBT Enterprise for Star Trek: The Next Penetration!
Everything old is new again.
When I was a kid, they broke up the class into Early Birds and Late Birds. The early birds went to school an hour earlier and had more advanced instruction. It was a way to separate the smart kids from the dumb kids where the dumb kids didn’t slow down the smart kids. I think this is a way to separate the merit students from the affirmative ones so the merit ones are not slowed down and further become contemptuous of the affirmative ones
