| Popis: | The Humanities section of the February 12 issue of Neurology® included an article titled “Lucky and the root doctor.” In this piece, the author describes his previous encounters with a black patient and his wife, and recounts dialogues in which the author is introduced to some of the patient's health beliefs, which differ widely from his own. Unfortunately, and perhaps unintentionally, the piece frames these interactions in the context of a highly problematic portrayal of race. Many Neurology readers reacted to the article, expressing concern over the negative racial overtones and calling for immediate corrective action. The article was quickly retracted, and a formal letter of apology and action plan was subsequently issued by the editor-in-chief of Neurology .1 |
