WTF does it mean to be "diverse already" and to not need more diversity? It means they think diversity is a problem, but it's actually the solution. @DrQuinnCapers4 #blackmeninmedicine #WomenInMedicine #DiversityandInclusion #MedEd #ICRE2019

May I also say that in addition to the dense pay gap, #ethnic minorities also face the challenges of pay gaps in corporate organization and healthcare systems and should not be forgotten. #genderpaygap #ICRE2019
