Author Rose Raymond discusses how osteopathic medical schools and the AACOM have been continuing their efforts to support diversity and inclusion efforts. She uses examples from Dr. Barbara Ross-Lee, the first African-American woman to serve as dean of a U.S. medical school, as well as leaders from three schools who share how their institution is taking strides to combat racism:
- Tanisha King, PhD, first Chief Inclusion Officer at the Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine
- Yvonne Torruella Ortiz, Rowan, director of DEI at Rowan University School of Osteopathic Medicine (RowanSOM)
- Dr. Hill, diversity officer and associate dean for multicultural affairs at The Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine
