Yesterday we vaccinated our Elders. We started in ceremony, the Elders and matriarchs prayed giving thanks and for future generations. I got to give the 1st dose to my Aunty Dr Leona Makokis, while the Cardinal Family sang an honour song. We danced after. cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…

1/Friends! I created a website for sharing my work/projects and a space for resources on anti-racism in healthcare/education in Canada. Content is based on email FAQs I get from colleagues and learners. It’s a pilot: dronnorom.com @uoftmedicine @UofT_dlsph @UofTMed_OID

Health systems are a tool for upholding white supremacy. He pleaded for help with every breath and they forcibly dragged him from care. ‘Failed him’ is an understatement & an apology is not enough. We need anti-racist mental health services led by Black & Indigenous folks now!

VIDEO: Samwel Uko screams "No, I have mental issues" as 4 hospital security guards kick him out of the Regina General ER in May. There was a dispute over his name. He was dead about an hour later. The SHA says it failed him: cbc.ca/1.5660929 @CBCNews @CBCSask

Setting the record straight, again. No one tells the Indigenous perspective & it pisses the mainstream societal narrative off so they call my work illegitimate- sick of it. So, here ya go @NatObserver

Come on surgeons, the least you can do is learn your anesthetist’s name. It’s “Joanne, why is the patient moving you’ve ruined everything” not “Anesthesia, why is the patient moving you’ve ruined everything.” Show some respect please.

Our culture wounds people by its very nature. It then elevates some of those wounded people to ranks where they can cause further harm to massive numbers of others, as the traumatized often do. A closed circuit of pain, of which Trump is merely the most recent/blatant exemplar.
Aaron Maté@aaronjmate

A new book from Donald Trump's niece, Mary Trump, claims he suffered "child abuse" & "deprivations that would scar him for life." Listen to @DrGaborMate on this, from May 2019: "Trump is a clearest example of a traumatized politician one could ever see." thegrayzone.com/2019/05/07/gab…

I grew up on a farm and am all too familiar with the overinflated pride farmers take it their work. But, the colonial truth allowing for farming success on the prairies needs to be understood for decolonization of relations between farmers and indigenous people.
Merle Massie, PhD 📚✒️🚜🇨🇦@merlemassie

With the strong #BlackLivesMatter and #IndigenousLivesMatter movements, I thought I'd help by addressing some of the popularized misconceptions around Indigenous people and prairie farming. We know that serious systemic racism exists, and it exists strongly in ag communities.

Before med school, I told my family that if they ever find themselves in the ER needing urgent medical attn, tell the health care workers that your close relative is a doctor, doesn't matter who in the family, just say it. We shouldn't have to protect our health from biased care

Let's be clear about something: if there is a spike in coronavirus cases in the next two weeks, don't blame the protesters. Blame racism.
