“…Western constructs of racial identity date back several centuries to when racial categories were created as a justification for economic exploitation and political gain. 12 Since then, racist policies have determined which demographic groups gain access to resources in the United States. The 19th century featured growing tensions between White Americans and other groups.…”

In the United States, race-based disparities in cardiovascular disease care have proven to be pervasive, deadly, and expensive. African American/Black, Hispanic/Latinx, and Native/Indigenous American individuals are at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and are less likely to receive high-quality, evidence-based medical care as compared with their White American counterparts. Although the United States population is diverse, the cardiovascular workforce that provides its much-needed care lacks diversity. The available data show that care provided by physicians from racially diverse backgrounds is associated with better quality, both for minoritized patients and for majority patients. Not only is cardiovascular workforce diversity associated with improvements in health care quality, but racial diversity among academic teams and research scientists is linked with research quality. We outline documented barriers to achieving workforce diversity and suggest evidence-based strategies to overcome these barriers. Key strategies to enhance racial diversity in cardiology include improving recruitment and retention of racially diverse members of the cardiology workforce and focusing on cardiovascular health equity for patients. This review draws attention to academic institutions, but the implications should be considered relevant for nonacademic and community settings as well.

A língua portuguesa é um patrimônio contencioso. Este ensaio apresenta o resultado de um trabalho de investigação comparada entre o Museu da Língua Portuguesa, em São Paulo, e os projetos de museus homólogos em Lisboa. O foco da investigação é a representação da África na meta-narrativa da língua portuguesa, em uma nova e potencialmente inovadora esfera, a das Artes. O ensaio procurará identificar as instâncias de continuidade e reconfiguração do império na imaginação da África no âmbito destas iniciativas de musealização do patrimônio imaterial (trans)nacional.This essay sets out to analyze the vectors of continuity and reconfiguration of the Portuguese empire in the narratives of the Portuguese language in its two hegemonic spaces, and within a new sphere, that of the Arts. It will explore the language narratives as they materialized in the Museu da Língua Portuguesa in São Paulo, and in the convoluted trajectory of its homologous museum's projects in Lisbon. The main focus of this comparative analysis is how Africathe one that belongs to the contemporary Portuguese and Brazilian imaginaries-has been represented in these museums. The object of analysis is therefore the imagination of Africa in Brazil and Portugal. Introductory NoteOn December 21st, 2015 the Museum of the Portuguese Language in São Paulo was partially destroyed by a tragic fire, which cost the life of a firefighter. Since then it has remained closed.
