When They Knew They Wanted to be Doctors

The number of African-American males in U.S. medical schools has declined over the years. Meharry Medical College faculty, administrators and students discuss why they pursued medicine and the hurdles involved.

Thanks for sharing this and showing a welcoming space that Meharry is - How does one get a medical question answered - I would like a very common material analyzed for its general composition - Thanks

Meharry College of Medecine is a special school for black people somewhat.
Medecine is a calling and I thank God Dr James Meredith made it as a Doctor online.😊😊

The core of medicine is eating from disciplines of controlling the conditions around us. FUnctional medicine requires interdisciplinary seamless integration . SAVING LIVES With cures that work.

With Affirmative Action you can accomplish anything. That med school slot is yours and that extremely smart White kid will end up flipping burgers.

[@timotheusarrington9240]

not exactly bucko. it takes hard work. and the medical schools will always take a hard working kid over an “extremely smart” kid any day. no need to bring your negative micro aggressions to this video. just cause u cant go to med school doesnt mean other white kids dont

[@NatG2019]

Thanks I will apply for affirmative action. I will apply for it to pass my classes as well. Can you use it o buy a house?
