Resumen del Editor
From tarred and feathered to hooded and lettered...
The challenges that preexist in the African American professional health community extend far beyond the confines of this text. The very essence of the journey, in many cases, is tainted at inception. More often than not, and particularly with people of color, the journey is met with inferred demise at the mere stage of oral admission to the desire to pursue doctoral status.
Despite the fact that African American lineage has given rise to such undeniable talent, intelligence, and genius as that of Dr. Charles Drew, Dr. Daniel Hale Williams, Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler, and an exhaustive list of many, many others, the doors of opportunity and access have yet to swing as far and wide for Blacks to enter medical and research-driven health professions.
The proverbial badge of honor in "the white coat" seems to exist as only a mirage of truth until it is achieved. This symbol of excellence and stature, garnered only by those who persevere beyond expectation, is seen as the crème de la crème in the African American community. It is the quintessential incarnation of our ancestors' wildest dreams, and the stamp of approval sought by generations before us. Among Black folk, the white coat is the banner of hope and indignation waved valiantly in silence every day by those shoulders upon which it falls. Simply put - it is the epitome of grandma's dream for familial status and respect personified.
For every budding and current Black doctor seeking guidance, if ever you've wanted to know what it takes to get in, how to stay in, and what it takes to win, consider this the blueprint.

Charlotte Bellows wrote The Definition of Beautiful between the ages of 15 and 17, in the wake of lockdown and in recovery from anorexia. In the tradition of Sylvia Plath in The Bell Jar and Françoise Sagan in Bonjour Tristesse, Bellows writes with deceptively straightforward urgency, pushing through society's constraints on the bodies and minds of girls and women to offer a story both achingly familiar and devastatingly new.

These days, no one in America feels immune to violence. But now, in this extraordinary, groundbreaking book, the nation's leading expert on predicting violent behavior unlocks the puzzle of human violence and shows that, like every creature on earth, we have within us the ability to predict the harm others might do us and get out of its way. Contrary to popular myth, human violence almost always has a discernible motive and is preceded by clear warning signs.

Based on seven years of ground-breaking research and hundreds of interviews, I Thought It Was Just Me shines a long-overdue light on an important truth: Our imperfections are what connect us to each other and to our humanity. Our vulnerabilities are not weaknesses; they are powerful reminders to keep our hearts and minds open to the reality that we're all in this together.

The latest groundbreaking tome from Tim Ferriss, the number-one New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek. For the last two years, I've interviewed more than 200 world-class performers for my podcast, The Tim Ferriss Show. The guests range from super celebs (Jamie Foxx, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.) and athletes (icons of powerlifting, gymnastics, surfing, etc.) to legendary Special Operations commanders and black-market biochemists. For most of my guests, it’s the first time they’ve agreed to a two-to-three-hour interview.
