The People’s Commissar of Health Equality

by David Sims

APPARENTLY, the anti-White communists have also penetrated the medical profession in a big way.

Recently, the American Medical Association sponsored a panel discussion in which Dr. Aletha Maybank (who is Black and is shown in the image above) made the ridiculous assertion that “racism” causes a number of diseases.

Dr. Maybank is the current — and first, ever — “chief health equity officer,” whatever that is, for the American Medical Association. Her degree string seems to be “M.D., M.P.H.,” which means “medical doctor and master of public health.”

Dr. Maybank has a background in pediatrics. She’s a founding board member of the Artemis Medical Society, an organization created in 2012 to support Black female medical doctors. In some way; I’m not sure how. Or why they’d need “support.”

Her job as AMA chief equity officer is to “work to embed health equity across the organization so that health equity becomes part of the practice, process, action, innovation, and organizational performance and outcomes” and to build “organizational capacity to elevate the importance of and to sustain the AMA’s health equity efforts,” according to an AMA press release. [Chief “equity officer” seems to imply a whole staff of “equity officers” infesting facilities across the country. I wonder: Who are they bossing? Who wins and who loses when they issue their commands? And who ultimately pays their salaries? — Ed.]

If you think that that job description sounds political in a communist kind of way, you’re probably right.

The trouble with the idea of “health equity” is that it contains the false assumption that unequal health outcomes are the result of “structural racism” in medical institutions, when, in fact, the inequality of those outcomes is the result of broad differences in the behavior, and sometimes in the biology, of different racial groups.

For example, Blacks in US cities have had a higher than average per capita incidence of COVID-19 infections. The “fake news” that the leftists are vending is that the higher risk of Blacks is due to some failure of the country’s public health care system. In reality, the elevated COVID-19 infection rate for Blacks came about mainly because of Black behavior.

Blacks have (much) higher per capita infection rates, as compared with Whites, for syphilis, gonorrhea, HIV, and other diseases, too, because of their prevalent behavior, and not because the health care system lacks “racial equity.”

In other words, Dr. Maybank’s position is a bogus one from a medical or scientific standpoint. It exists purely for political reasons. The sort of political reasons that communists have.

Territorially separate countries by race (there is no other possible solution) and eliminate the problem, in reality racism is a problem of asymmetric societies (East Asia that is symmetric does not suffer from that problem), the conflict is first biological (sharing the same territory ) and then social. The Semitic parasite that feeds on the problem will not like it

Seeing blacks in medicine always reminds me of the famous case of Alan Bakke
way back in 1978: https://www.britannica.com/event/Bakke-decision I recall a
passing interest at the time, but later I would hear discussion on talk shows that
revealed Mr. Bakke (a nice Germanic name) had scored in the 90th percentile
but was denied admission whereas a particular black who scored in the 50th
percentile was admitted due to the reserved spots for “minorities”. Nothing
inspires confidence in a professional like the helping hand of mediocrity eh ?
I say let’s have a look at her marks shall we !

I was pre-med some years back, until life got in the way and I had to quit school. Besides having to have very good grades, a well put together application package and great letters of recommendation, a white or Asian applicant had to have a composite Medical College Admission Test score of at least 30. A black applicant had to have a MCAT score of 21. I don’t know what the MCAT score requirements are today, but medical schools in this country have been practicing affirmative action for a long time. Finally, if you value your life, DON’T use black doctors under any circumstances!

Just wait until they want to make the US flag less offensive and less racist. They WILL try to change it, mark my words, by adding a green stripe to symbolize Africa, or something like that. They might could do it now, if they wanted.

Have already noticed images of the American flag with a black stripe just below the field of stars.

Any guesses on why the focus on black worship? If I were the elite, I would focus on hispanics. They are somewhat more competent and their numbers can be increased far more rapidly as we have seen. So why bother with the 13%?

I think blacks are simply more audacious to the point of staring into a camera lens with a scowl and rant about white people in front of tens of millions of people, especially knowing that there probably will not be any repercussions. Hispanics are primarily Mongoloid, and prefer to utilize the element of surprise, not such overt actions and public displays.

How can you have “Health Equity”? How is that even possible? Blacks are more susceptible to certain diseases than others are – in part due to basic genetics, in part due to a lack of common sense or intelligence, but for the most part because of simply poor personal hygiene. But no, it is far simpler to use the usual get-out-of-jail-free card, and say that the world is “racist” rather than address the manifold failings of the black race – stupidity, amorality, and poor hygiene. (And that is just for starters). If black “people” wish to be unfairly treated as equals, then perhaps they should begin by behaving like civilized human beings, instead of animals. But I imagine that expecting everyone to adhere to the same standards of behaviour is… Read more »

Literally Planet of the Apes. Jewish Hollywood I think are having their joke in plain sight with that movie as they do. 97% of all black murders are from blacks, wonder if that “doctor” contemplated that statistic. lol

THE race which has mass murdered 300,000 of its own people in this country since 1980, and doesn’t care in the slightest. They will go along with anything their real master want of them.
