At the same time, we walked in feat in the surrounding neighborhood, and some of us were subjected to the unthinking violence of our society. The night inspired special fears from darkened streets and concealed faces. Perhaps, some of us missed the lesson that while we were able to escape that environment of violence, the permanent inhabitants of the community were subject to it at all times and could not escape. We had been placed face to face with the darker side of our society, its inequities and failings. Because of this it would be easy to succumb to a sense of despair. Now that we are set free, the four years ended, what directions will we take? The lessons we have learned cannot be forgotten.

The North Philadelphia ghetto was one of ihe classrooms in our training. We learned about the decay of our cities, through the visual aids of boarded up homes and abandoned cars. We were taught how ingrained poverty, ignorance, and despair affected the human condition, both in mind and body. Yet, the hospital in which we learned was bankrupt too; it’s not easy to make money on people who have no money to pay. At the same time, monies did not seem to be forthcoming to people endowed with small political clout. The educational system was failing and bankrupt schools were not even able to maintain inefficient programs. Ours was an academic center which served a community—often the goals were in conflict. We spoke the language of the privileged, educated class and found ourselves separated from many of our patients b a cultural and communications gap. We were taught, by example, a particular form of racism mirrored by the difference in treatment and approach between private and ward populations. Often, our more “ignorant” patients would speak of experimentation, and sometimes we too might wonder why a particular test or procedure would have to be performed. ]pM yNlVWKTY MEDICAL CtHIER 7 5 - r »r«WMi HlWtsr ' Kis
