Synopsis "New Medicine for a New Millennium: A Memoir Looking Front to Back in Time at a Black Woman's Life in Medicine (in English)"
This is the story of my life as a young woman growing up in Detroit, experiencing the tribulations of black like in that city, my interracial marriage intersecting at the time of the 1967 Detroit riot, my round about path from television work to motherhood to medical school, how I encountered racism and sexism in medical training and private practice of medicine and how I rose above it all. I have included my ideas about the need for revolution in health care, the future of medicine, and the improvement of medical education. I also add my take on the racial problems that continue to plague us today such as reparations and health disparities. Finally I look at my personal experience as a patient, facing my own medical frailties and my emotional evolution as I struggled through the emotional upheavals of living with a talented daughter who is afflicted with the twin devils of mental health issues and substance abuse. I think I have persisted in the face of it all and this book shows how I did it.
