Scenario

When academic medicine resists research on racial health disparities

My research on racial disparities in maternal mortality keeps getting rejected from journals and the feedback always asks for more "balanced" perspectives, as if maternal deaths need to be balanced against something.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The person confronts how institutional gatekeeping in medical publishing perpetuates ignorance about racial health inequities under the guise of scientific objectivity.
