Reaction to Paper on Affirmative Action in Cardiology May Help Spur Change

According to Saima Karim, DO (Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH), and colleagues, the “white paper” written by electrophysiologist Norman Wang, MD (University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, PA), which was widely condemned on social media after its publication in the
