Although Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was the U.S. Supreme Court’s most recent appointment, her dissenting opinion in the high court’s overturning of affirmative action programs on college campuses points out a major “error.”
In his column at FoxNews.com, senior fellow at Do No Harm Jay P. Greene criticized Brown for relying on an inadequate defense of racial discrimination that relied on flawed evidence and misinterpretation of research findings.
This example serves as a warning to all Americans about the danger posed by organizations such as the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and their threat to our health and wellbeing due to their extremist views that prioritize diversity above accuracy and quality medical care.
Greene began by highlighting how Jackson repeated an unbelievable claim while defending affirmative action in college admissions – namely, that matching Black physicians with Black patients doubles survival rates for newborns, which is not only unbelievable but also factually unsupported.
Consequently, this false assertion did not hold up under closer examination nor scrutiny from experts who are familiar with medical research findings regarding this topic area.
Jackson then compounded her error when she attempted to back up her argument with yet another mistake.
It appears that she referenced an amicus brief from AAMC which made reference to four studies related to pain management challenges faced by black patients.
However, none of these studies actually analyzed whether black doctors were more effective when treating their own race for pain relief than other doctors were when treating non-black patients.
It doesn’t end there though – Greene goes further in pointing out how AAMC has placed too much emphasis on diversity without considering opposing viewpoints or other potential implications.
It seems clear that either AAMC misinterpreted or deliberately fabricated these assertions without providing any supporting evidence whatsoever.
He views these practices as being extremely detrimental both now and especially looking into the future – since medical schools may be forced into adopting DEI initiatives.
