--- "...racism-as-a-public-health-crisis narrative."

See the pattern? Climate change is a public health crisis. Racism is a public health crisis. Inequality of outcomes are versions of a health crisis. Of course, pandemics planned and executed are a public health crisis.

And the globalists want the WHO to declare public health crises -- plural -- and lock down whole societies down who would disagree.

Fascism -- a Leftist's dream -- rising.

Add to the mix: If you disagree with government you are a "domestic terrorist."

This is yhe same university that many of the faculty signed the letter supporting the fake rape charges by the black woman against the white Duke LaCrosse players, and never apologized.

Worth repeating

“Their fundamental reason for writing the pledge, and its fundamental claim, was that “racism is a public health crisis.” That had not been my experience, nor did it fit my observations, so I asked to see the clinical data the authors had used to form this conclusion. After much back and forth, I received the following reply from a Duke Health senior administrator: “I concede that I cannot find a [clinical] trial that proves implicit bias is the cause of worse health outcomes for African Americans. Believe me. I have looked.”
