Ask – Ask questions about race, be curious, read, learn and educate yourself. Accept – Accept there is really a problem. More data aren’t needed. Acknowledge – Openly acknowledge that the problem needs to be dealt with. Apologise – Express sympathy that racism is affecting people of certain races. Assume – Don’t. Instead develop informed views by seeking to understand individuals. Action – Take demonstrable action steps to establish equality and be accountable. 7 A's Infographic: https://twitter.com/yvonnecoghill1/status/1280744970102636550 -- Follow us -- https://www.instagram.com/rcpedintrainees -- Upcoming RCPE Events -- https://www.rcpe.ac.uk/events Feedback: [email protected] This podcast is from the Trainees & Members' Committee (T&MC) of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh (RCPE).
