Stritch WC4BL

 

June 19, 2020

Over 270 Stritch School of Medicine students stand against racism to improve the health of the Black community.

Now more than ever, Loyola University Chicago is called to listen to the voices of our students. Their voices must help inform how we as a University address the racism in our institution and community with action and meaningful change. To demonstrate this commitment, we want to share those voices with the wider Loyola community.

Read the perspectives of Stritch students and see how nearly 300 Stritch School of Medicine students have come together as part of White Coats for Black Lives, a national student movement that seeks to eliminate racism in the practice of medicine.

You can also view the complete gallery of Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine students in support of WC4BL.

CBS News featured White Coats for Black Lives organizer M2 Jessica Simpson and Stritch’s new White Coats for Black Lives chapter in the story, “Doctors push for an end to racial discrimination in health care.”
