This is SERIOUS professionalism

A guy is injured, and an ER crew busts their chops to save his life. Without batting an eye at the fact that they are all African-American, and he is ....professionalism.jpg

Is that a real photo? Story?

I swear I have seen that somewhere before.

Yep, its from an ad campaign in what appears to be the 60s or 70s.

Whether or not the picture truthfully represents an actual event, it does accurately represent a reality of the medical profession.


Medicals professionals regularly treat people of whose opinions they may personally despise. However, I believe the illustration is, ironically, more about a lack of ethics from people consumed by hate (i.e. KKK), than it is about the righteousness of minorities or medical professionals in general.

Here's a little more background on it - it was part of an ad campaign - undetermined as to whether it was a real photo or staged:

Hmmm.

Unless the doctor is a muslim and the patient is a jew.

There's a court case, civil and possibly criminal, in Chicago about a muslim doctor who left a jewish patient on a gurney to die.

Hmmm.

Sorry, it's in Cleveland.

If it is true, and the patient survived, I think it would be amusing that he lived with the knowledge of who saved his life.
