Documents acquired by watchdog Do No Harm and examined by the Daily Caller News Foundation reveal that the University of Minnesota spent $219,633 creating a training program that instructs healthcare workers about “structural racism” in the healthcare field as a result of “white supremacy.”
The Minnesota State Dept. of Health says that the course was made by Diversity Science to meet the requirements of the Dignity in Pregnancy and Childbirth Act, which officially took effect earlier this year.
“This is a lot of money for a taxpayer-funded medical school to put toward a virtual training module,” Do No Harm program head Laura Morgan stated to the DCNF.
Talking about “racism and bias in perinatal care” is part of the hour-long diversity, equality, and inclusion training session.
The University’s Center for Antiracism Research for Health Equity says, “From the beginning of the history of the U.S., white supremacy has been used to justify and support slavery along with colonialism.” This led to “myths that Black and Indigenous individuals are inherently ‘below’ white people.”
Do No Harm acquired a paper that talks about women a lot as “birthing people.”
The training paper said, “Black birthing people are about two times more likely to die from pregnancy complications compared to white birthing people, and Native American birthing people are about four times more likely to die. Black and Native American babies are more than twice as likely as white babies to die prior to their first birthday.”
A movie from Diversity Science says that “80% of fatal outcomes of black birthing individuals are preventable.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say that 84% of all pregnancy-related deaths, regardless of race, could have been avoided.
The training program says that “white supremacy,” “structural racism,” as well as “implicit racial bias” are “linked and reinforce each other.” It says that these “unconscious” but “automatic” implicit attitudes about race “affect the health care that Black and Indigenous people are given.”
The course of study at the university states that “structural racism has become a public health crisis” and exhorts medical professionals to “counteract the burdens” by putting “antiracism as a core professional competency” into practice, “desegregating workers,” and providing “culturally- and relationship-centered medical care.”
In addition to reading the training paper, doctors and nurses watch a movie that shows a timeline of racism within the healthcare business. The timeline, called “Stereotype: Black people do not feel pain in exactly the same way that white people do,” began in 1619 and then skips the Civil Rights Movement as well as any progress made in the business.
“Today,” the timeline says, “studies still find racial differences in pain care, including care for postpartum pain.”
These people are racists who also narcissistic. They spread this hate to get attention. They want to be admired but, instead, makes people want to be away from them. They think others are inferior but show that they have an inferiority complex. I refuse to be around such people who always act attention on them.
So right Betty Jay , they sound like a bunch of nuts thats getting ready to be eaten by a bunch of squares. They need to stay out of child- birth puting there idiot ideas in .
It is obvious that Biden’s Mental incapacity has hit the Medical School. The facts are The better your Doc the better the care, Your ability to pay for a good Doc helps, What you eat and your physical activity and amount of sleep all are key factors. Simply put each Expectant Mother gets and lives the life her financial and marital situation allow. There is nothing systemic or going back to colonial times. It is present day socioeconomic status that counts.
As a “birthing person” I had to laugh at “the Dignity in Pregnancy and Childbirth Act”.
I don’t know where anyone got such a ludicrous idea. There is absolutely NO “dignity” in pregnancy and as for childbirth…You are sitting there with your legs apart, no covering, pushing this honking big head out, sweating, bleeding and in pain…I just want to know where the dignity is.
As well as having a hand stuck up in you to check how dilated you are, & half the staff coming in to look at your hooha!
It comes from the same stupid people ! That ! Came up with the title of
“” A Birthing person “
Racism & discrimnation in full force.
Diana,
I worked in a hospital for 20 years, & I saw & heard more discriminatory remarks & actions from the black nurses than I saw from the white ones! Saying the black patients were only in there to get drugs & wouldn’t give their scheduled meds. And a white nurse would go look at the chart, & go talk to the white manager who would go talk to the black nurse then go give the black patient their pain meds. I SAW this first hand! So explain that as white supremacy!!
Amen, Donna!!!! I worked over 30 yrs as an RN and I saw and heard more derogatory rhetoric by so-called minority nurses not only towards whites but towardstheir own kind!!!!!!
If all white people are gone who will pay for welfare the immigrants?
You got it, Shirley!!!! They like to collect but when it comes out of their own pockets YIKES!!!!!
Damn the woke weirdos for forcing their propaganda on everyone!
I don’t trust hospitals or some doctors anymore. My wife died after being in hospital for pnumonia. She was given some medicine she was allergic to that shut down all her organs and she died. My sister was in the hospital about a month ago with pnumonia and she was given so much blood thinner, why I don’t know, a blood vessel started leaking blood and she died the next day. Do we not have any doctors that know what they are doing anymore?
It would be helpful if specific problems were elucidated, and specific solutions were offered. Where and who is being affected.?The article sounds like a bunch of BS to me. What STUDIES show a discrimination in pain care.? None that are credible that I have seen.
IF ALL WHITE PEOPLE ARE REMOVED, WHO WILL TAKE CARE OF OUR GOVERNMENT SPENDING?? ALL THE ILLEGALS WHO COME HERE FOR FREE, FREE, NOT TO PAY TAXES. WELFARE RECIPIENTS WILL STOP HAVING BABYS, NO FREE MEDICAL, FREE HAUSING , NO MORE MONEY FOR BOYFRIENDS ETC. KEEP UP THE HATE YOU ARE CUTTING OF YOUR NOSE TO SPITE YOUR FACE. TO STUPID TO BE REAL. ALL YOU LOAFERS NEED TO GET A JOB.
They talk about white supremacy while many POC are condemning Israel for daring to fight back against Hamas, like they are just supposed take it & keep being bombed. And many of them are advocating the complete annihilation of jews… again!
“Stereotype” black people don’t feel pain like whites? They don’t, some feel more intense pain than whites, certain types of pain, certain areas cause more pain. I saw that working in a hospital. Another thing I saw happen was black nurses treating black patients the way this article says only white nurses do. I’ve heard a black nurse saying that her pt in room 103 (who was black) is saying she’s in pain, don’t anyone give her anything she’s just looking for drugs. Even BLM discrimination against “their own” people, we’ve all seen it, where some black lives haven’t mattered as much as others. When the group sat silent over something that was horrible, & people were asking where is BLM?
When are people going to start getting along & stop hating? Oh yeah, never because everyone has to find someone else to blame for their bad luck, or their lack of effort to make their lives better…. every color does this, so I’m not singling out blacks or browns, but ALL of them/us.
When they realize there is only one race
Called humans
Pull all funding!
As we see happening in America . Racism exists only in the minds of those who want power. White people have nothing. . But millions of people being placed on their backs to work for . While Americans of all colors are dying in the streets. Name one thing that whites have ? It’s a known fact. They are pushing this racist crap to get rid of white people . Whites are made to obey the laws we all are suppose to abide by. Wake up ! I have had too many relatives die within hours after being admitted into the hospital. And for a white person . It’s dangerous! Whites are not catered too!
By now one would hope that Americans would wake from their indoctrination by fools . And yes they are fools. They threw God out and have embraced every filthy vile evil thing imaginable.
These are the same morons that push the no gender upon young people. If Americans don’t wake up soon . There will be absolutely no freedoms left.
It is a blatant slap in the face for a WOMAN to be called a” birthing person”! Who ever came up with that crap clearly has not given birth! That term degrades motherhood and women in general! Clearly, men cannot give birth, only females can. But the trannys who insist they are women, while still having beards and male genitalia are ludicrous! Talk about mental illness, that is the epitome of insanity! They are NOT women, they are freaks! And they cannot be a “ birthing person” so they degrade the females, by insisting they are women. This birthing person crap must be denounced! I don’t know who came up with that term, but whom ever it is, they should be horse whipped!
