I've been to U of P a hundred times and I can't believe this.
This is the kind of stuff the DEMs bath in.
Five months after medical advocacy group "Do No Harm" sued the University of Pennsylvania, its medical school and health system, a Philadelphia-area consortium of medical schools and an African-American-owned and operated talk radio station for excluding non-black doctors from a directory for black patients, the defendants have thrown in the towel.
U.S. District Judge Harvey Bartle entered a final judgment in favor of Do No Harm and against the Penn defendants, Consortium of DEI Health Educators and WURD Radio for $1 in nominal damages after the defendants made an offer of judgment, three weeks earlier, to rename the Black Doctors Directory and stop considering race in eligibility for inclusion.
It was created last fall and promoted in a splashy video by WURD Radio, with Penn Medicine Associate Dean for Diversity and Inclusion Horace Delisser claiming black doctors "use their knowledge to inform their care in ways that are culturally appropriate and culturally affirming" and "are able to help the patient overcome" mistrust in the medical system.
