Mardoche Sidor, MD and Karen Dubin, PhD, LCSW — Tue, 17 Nov 2020 15:00:00 +0000

We can no longer wait and allow those with special interests, none of which include the interests of our patients, continue to make the decision for them. We can no longer stay on the sidelines. We have to do something, and while one person, alone, may not be able to do much, coming together, in community, we can.

Can Clinicians Help Undo Racism?

Mardoche Sidor, MD and Karen Dubin, PhD, LCSW — Tue, 10 Nov 2020 15:00:00 +0000

Einstein reminded us that, “We cannot solve our problems with the same type of thinking that created them,” and this is why our Ultimate Aim is to realize the type of thinking that may be required to undo Racism once and for all.

Mardoche Sidor, MD and Karen Dubin, PhD, LCSW — Tue, 03 Nov 2020 15:00:00 +0000

Of course, this reinforces our state, but we do not really see any other way, and those around us may either not know the state we are in, or may not understand that they can help us differently than they have been. They are making us totally dependent on them, on the system, on being given a fish, instead of teaching us how to fish.

What Causes Suffering?
