“Street Medicine” is an intrinsically unnatural act in society. It is an inversion of power dynamics” - medical professionals going to work alongside and under society’s most marginalized. Thank you, Dr. Withers!

I'm light of Missouri Republicans trying to ban public libraries, let's have another come to Jesus moment about what "libraries" and "public" mean. We'll just use today as an example. Just today. Ten hours of a shift at a very rural public library. 1/

The Problem With Jon Stewart @TheProblem

State Sen. Nathan Dahm (R-OK) has penned several bills loosening gun restrictions, including the nation’s first anti-red flag law. He thinks these bills protect the Second Amendment – and that they make us safer. We think it's probably one or the other. Watch it on @AppleTVPlus.

District One’s residents have the right to self-governance and so do the nearly 700,000 people who live in Washington, D.C. I don’t live there, and neither do House Republicans. It’s time for #DCStatehood.

Family physicians treat millions of patients with diabetes, but many of our patients cannot afford their #insulin. The @aafp thanks @POTUS, the @WhiteHouse and Congress for their work to cap out-of-pocket insulin costs. #SOTU aafp.org/dam/AAFP/docum…

This list is so painful to read. No one should die because they can't afford housing. Period. Thank you to @WashingtonPffc for honoring the lives of our neighbors & for leading the fight to make sure everyone in DC has a home. @ServeYourCityDC #HousingIsAHumanRight

Clinicians have been taught to consider race while managing HTN - it is well documented race is a social construct, the @aafp encourages family physicians to be aware of the inappropriate use of race as a proxy for genetics in decision-making ✔️

Care coordination doesn't address social determinants. You can't fix the impact of centuries of racist laws & policies with a tech platform. Systemic issues can only be mitigated by systemic solutions...P👏🏼O👏🏼L👏🏼I👏🏼C👏🏼Y👏🏼

National election days are stark reminders of the injustice of the nearly 700,000 DC residents, who pay the same federal taxes as residents of states, having no voting representation in Congress and only limited, revocable local self-governing authority.
