C’était un plaisir d’avoir cette discussion avec chers collègues, les Dr.s Jean-Michel Leduc et Margaret Henri! Je me suis rappelé que mes racines au Québec vont pour un trentaine d’années!
Cet épisode de balado explore les thèmes clés de l’équité, de la diversité et de l’inclusion en pédagogie médicale, plus particulièrement en contexte québécois: bit.ly/4q5cpDb @saleemrazackmd.bsky.social

Voting is an act of community and belonging. I always get emotional when I vote. I see that first day in 🇨🇦 so long ago, landing in Halifax, with all the possibilities it held. We must preserve the community belonging that gives us all a place and a say in this amazing society.

In other times, I would have tweeted about how I am still haunted by the pain and lonely healing in All of Us Strangers. Doing so seems so self-indulgent in this world of today. I feel underserving of such expression. The guilt of surviving and being able to live my life.

If nations are imagined communities, Benedict Anderson's definition which resonates with me, then history is also imagined and co-created. There are the facts of what happened--can be disputed or proven etc., but the meaning is perspectival, & history simply becomes rhetoric for some argument. 🧵

What was the last straw that brought me here? Noticing the patterns of subtle white supremacy on my feeds—such as posts about the “Zimbabwefication” of the world—African history as if race and colonization never existed. How can knowledge ever be uncoerced under such manipulative algorithms?

Now that I've fled Leon's site for bluer skies, I'm sure I'll be called an #Ex-X, but personally, I'll always consider myself a #TwitterQuitter.
