**Selected for 2026 Doody's Core Titles in Medical Education**
Systemic racism profoundly affects the medical education work and learning environment, from the staff and faculty who are the backbone of every medical school, to what and how medical students are taught, who teaches them, and how they are supported and evaluated. Achieving Antiracism in Medical Education addresses the underlying root causes of racism in medical education— its culture, values, and mental models—and offers practical, real-world strategies for transforming its culture instead of merely reacting to crises and solving discrete problems.

"...focuses on transforming medical education within academic centers, [providing] detailed instructions on the steps necessary to achieve these changes, using the author's experience as an example.... The book does an impressive job of making complex steps appear achievable and implementable for anyone committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) work. [Its] purpose is to encourage clinical educators and leaders within medical education to take critical, sustainable steps towards making their institutions antiracism spaces. It provides explicit instructions, graphs, charts, and activities to accomplish these goals.... specifically written for clinical educators and leadership within academic medical centers.... One of the book's best parts is its innovative approach to making an academic medical center and medical school anti-racist.... an effective tool for educators who want to make change, build community, and sustain change,... [and] could be a real asset for an institution working to create inclusive change." ©Doody's Book Review Service, 2025, Kara Alcegueire, MD (Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center) Doody's Score: 95, 4 stars!
