Addressing his specific point that “decolonization” of the curriculum in medicine is “dangerous” - As a practicing physician, I strongly disagree. I think the author likely has a completely inaccurate idea of what a medical curriculum even is, as I cannot reconcile most of what he is saying with what I’ve seen at several of the top medical training places in the country. Decolonization of medical curriculum in general is important as our euro-centric view of disease often ends up dramatically hurting minority individuals. This runs from obvious things like making sure physicians have pictures of rashes on melanotic (dark) skin in textbooks to more difficult things like incorporating non-European ancestry individuals in massive genetic studies and not simply discarding their genetic info (as has been done for a lot of large population studies historically).
