A clinical antiracism curriculum for third-year medical students to bring antiracist principles to the bedside.

As medical educators, we have a responsibility to ensure our trainees are exposed to curricula dedicated to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), as illustrated by the Association of American Medical Colleges' recently released DEI Competencies Across the Curriculum. We designed and implemented a curriculum, Social Justice Rounds (SJR), that incorporates teaching on these topics directly into inpatient clinical work. SJR are brief team-based discussions facilitated by Pediatric Hospital Medicine faculty that focus on racism in medicine and other forms of discrimination experienced by patients and the effect it has on their interaction with the healthcare system. Medical students rotating through the Pediatrics Clerkship completed optional pre- and postclerkship surveys, which revealed statistically significant increases in students' frequency and comfort with conversations regarding DEI topics, both with the medical team and with patients. We believe that SJR provides a framework by which educators across specialties and institutions can provide trainees with foundational DEI skills.
