Yale Doctor Calls For All Health Care Providers To Wear Body Cams To Catch Racism

The idea of health care providers wearing body cameras to catch their acts of racism was posed by Dr. Amanda Calhoun, a Yale psychiatry resident.
She argues the case in a Boston Globe op-ed in which she says medical professionals should wear such cameras because life and death decisions made by health care workers disproportionately affect black people in a negative way due to racism.
Calhoun , serves as co-vice chairperson of the Diversity Council of the Yale Resident Fellow Senate.
