Scenario

When siblings disagree about whether their parent faces medical racism

My sister and I have been taking our elderly father to different specialists and we keep encountering doctors who dismiss his symptoms or suggest 'lifestyle changes' in ways that feel coded, but she thinks I'm being too sensitive about the race issue and just wants to focus on getting him care.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Family members are experiencing the same discriminatory treatment but interpreting it through different lenses, creating conflict when unity is needed.
