Beschreibung

This is the story of my life as a young woman growing up in Detroit, experiencing the tribulations of Black like in that city; my interracial marriage intersecting at the time of the 1967 Detroit riot; my roundabout path from television work to motherhood to medical school; how I encountered racism and sexism in medical training and private practice of medicine; and how I rose above it all. 


I have included my ideas about the need for revolution in health care, the future of medicine, and the improvement of medical education. I also add my take on the racial problems that continue to plague us today such as reparations and health disparities.  


Finally I look at my personal experience as a patient, facing my own medical frailties and my emotional evolution as I struggled through the emotional upheavals of living with a talented daughter who is afflicted with the twin devils of mental health issues and substance abuse. I think I have persisted in the face of it all and this book shows how I did it.
