I finally opened my wallet today and paid $50 to be an official subscriber to Bari after reading Katie Herzog's last two articles. Bari, you are providing an invaluable public service. Thank you for exposing how racist garbage is allowed to infect the medical profession and gets a respectful hearing at a formerly great institution like Yale. If Dr. Khilanani were not a BIPOC herself I'm sure she would never have gotten through any reputable psychiatry residency (I am a physician myself). I can imagine how her mentors and colleagues were terrified of publically criticizing her crazy rants for fear of being labelled racists. To have a person like this treating vulnerable patients is unconscionable.

She's a nuclear powered drama queen who has everyone walking on eggshells. Add some BLM/CRT propaganda and a New York State medical license, and you've got a teflon coated, 21st century Mengele.

The more I thought about this article yesterday, the more I came to the same conclusion. My sister and I were reading the interview thinking, “This is so insane it’s almost laughable until you realize that she’s being given serious attention from respected institutions, which makes it actually horrifying.” As I reflected on it, it occurred to me that her lecture title is like a relic from a 1930s eugenics doctor. I thought our society was far beyond this sort of charlatan nonsense.

You guys must be quite insulated and comfortably numb. This stuff is making rapid advances to your own front door.

Not sure what about my comment read as “insulated.” I’m acutely aware of the tenets of CRT and the pervasive nature of it. I was stating that crackpot rhetoric like this was, until recently, dismissed with an incredulous laugh, and I did indeed guffaw a couple times at her commentary. But the bemused feeling of “What a wackadoo!” has been replaced with horror since she and her ilk are now being given credence by esteemed institutions.
