After you read the author’s opinion blogs, write a 2–page paper in APA format that includes a brief explanation of the overall problem discussed throughout these blogs. Find your own academic sources using the school library that helps you explain why this problem might exist. Come up with a five-point action plan to reduce racism in the field of medicine. Justify your plan. Make sure to explain how you would teach each of the five points to those currently working in the health care field. (When you do this, think about what you have learned throughout the sociology course about education, racism, health/healthcare, religion, and other areas that may affect your program.) In-text citation, references, and conclusion.
