As an organization, OMSA is committed to engaging in advocacy that promotes diversity, inclusion, justice and equity in all its forms, and today, we commit more specifically to addressing anti-Black racism and white supremacy within our advocacy work.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nIn these difficult times, OMSA shares in the collective grief reverberating across many Black communities. We stand in solidarity with Black medical trainees across the province and voice our support for the anti-racism advocacy of the Black Medical Students\u2019 Association of Canada. We further implore non-Black POC and white medical trainees to take up their responsibilities as allies in the fight against anti-Black racism. Finally, we call upon medical schools in Ontario to prioritize incorporation of policies and curricula within their institutions that specifically opposes anti-Black racism, and to support the enrolment of Black students in their institutions; the need for these are imminent now, more than ever.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nAlong with compiling anti-racism in medicine resource list, we are working on providing anti-oppression training to our execs, and have donated to the Black Physicians\u2019 Association of Ontario. We encourage all our students to learn more about this organization and their work.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<b>Click\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/omsa_statement-anti-blackracism.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>\u00a0to read the full press release from OMSA.<\/b>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nFor more information on OMSA's advocacy efforts, please contact\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:advocacy@omsa.ca\">advocacy@omsa.ca<\/a>","embed_pdf":"","post_category":"Clerkship","post_tags":[],"embed_video":null},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hub_post\/3516","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hub_post"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/hub_post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hub_post\/3516\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3520,"href":"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hub_post\/3516\/revisions\/3520"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3516"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3516"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omsa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3516"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
