Cultural competency is for some a new buzzword that has become prevalent in many different institutions and professions. Cultural competency in medicine however is something that has emerged during a time when there was not a focus on diversity issues in the United States. What is cultural competency? What is structural competency? Why do doctors need it? Does it really have an impact on healthcare outcomes? Helping us discuss this topic today is returning guest Dr. Oni Blackstock.

What Black Twitter Taught Me - Haiti
Last season we introduced a reduced version of our typical episode model for the first time, airing a podcast that was under 10 minutes long. It ended up being one of our more popular episodes so we decided to expand it into an ongoing miniseries called, what Black Twitter taught me. Black Twitter is good for anything from pop culture, sports commentary, and intense sociopolitical discourse. With this series, we will share what we learned from insightful threads on various sociopolitical topics. Today we will be discussing Hattian history as it relates to colonialism and their strife for independence
Haiti has endured some tumultuous periods throughout its history. You may have seen some of the nation's recent struggles and inability in the news, political assassinations, and natural disasters have created an influx of Haitian refugees attempting to enter the united states. Troubling images of refugees being met with less than empathetic border enforcement went viral while this story was circulating. There was one in particular where a border patrol officer forcefully grabbed one of the refugees, in his hand it seemed like he was holding a whip. While the whipping aspect of the photo ended up not being the case, the point remains the same. There is a basic lack of humanity and a lack of historical context in terms of how Haiti ended up in such a tumultuous situation to begin with.

Messages From the Playground
Recently we read a book called Raising LGBTQ Allies by Chris Tompkins. One of the major concepts that stood out to us was the analogy of a universal playground that we have all experienced. The “playground” is a symbolic metaphor for our minds and the messages we receive reflect dominant societal world views. As children, we absorb conscious and unconscious messages that ultimately shape our beliefs and perspective on the society in which we live.
Many adults experience apprehension and discomfort introducing complex concepts like heteronormativity, homophobia, transphobia, etc, to young children. What we often fail to realize is that children are introduced to these concepts whether we discuss them explicitly or choose to remain silent. We have discussed socialization on the podcast before, but Chris’ book gives an in-depth explanation as it relates to the LGBTQ community in a thoughtful and digestible manner. Today Chris Tompkins joins us to help us discuss this topic further.
