Systemic racism has a significant impact on the medical education work and learning environment, affecting staff and faculty, medical students, teaching methods, and evaluation. Achieving Antiracism in Medical Education addresses the root causes of racism in medical education, including its culture, values, and mental models, and provides practical strategies for transforming its culture. The book offers a five-phase approach to dismantling racism in medical education, which is broadly transformative, lifelong, people-dependent, and responsive to the world around us. It provides activity-led guidance for medical education, from readiness and engagement through implementation, change management, and sustainability, and includes practical tools and guidance to establish a self-sustaining cycle. Written by authors who have established a thriving antiracism program at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and schools who have participated in their framework, the book includes student perspectives. It is an outstanding resource for faculty, staff, students, administrators, and leaders in medical education, as well as those in other areas of health care who provide education and training. An eBook version is included with purchase, allowing access to all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud.
