Abstract
Being an ethical and antiracist educator requires ongoing reflection on the colonial assumptions
dominating medical and health sciences education. Foundational principles of anti-racist pedagogy will be introduced and common challenges and pitfalls that faculty members and teaching assistants experience in the learning environment will be examined. Approaches to deepen one鈥檚 preparation and response to
difficult moments as they arise will be offered, while considering proactive strategies to integrate inclusive practices into teaching practice to advance health equity and justice.
