Title A name given to the resource Letter from Mervyn Dymally to a private citizen, 1969 Subject The topic of the resource Health Care Welfare Discrimination State and Federal Governments Dymally, Mervyn M., 1926-2012 Description An account of the resource In this letter, Dymally replies to the concerns of a constituent, who is a medical doctor, about welfare recipients who discriminate in their choice of doctors. Dymally asserts that many black people, after lifetimes of constant rejection by racists, fear white doctors as a result. Black American’s mistrust of the medical system is built on a long history of harm, discrimination, racist and unfounded views of the Black body, and unethical experimentation, the most infamous of which may be the Tuskegee Syphilis Study (1932-1972).

Title A name given to the resource Letter from Black Medical Students of UCLA , 1970 Subject The topic of the resource Health Care UCLA School of Medicine Press Conference Petition Dymally, Mervyn M., 1926-2012 Description An account of the resource In a letter written by the Black Medical Students of UCLA to Senator Dymally, they express their concern over the under representation of Blacks and Latinos in the UCLA School of Medicine; as Blacks and Latinos only represent 2% in the program. On 9 March 1970, the students petitioned for a program that would help admit more Black students. Although the petition received over a hundred signatures, the administration did not take steps to address the issues outlined in the petition with recruiting students and the educational disparities that students of color face at UCLA. The most recent data from the American Association of Medical Colleges shows that while some progress has been made since this letter was written, the racial disparity among U.S. doctors continues to be stark. African Americans represent only 6.2% of medical school graduates and 5% of the active physicians. Written by Javier-Zamora Cruz, History 3450, Fall 2020.
