I perceive myself as someone lazy and incapable. Unfortunately, others see responsible and capable. I never wanted to lead. My parents were already student leaders, our family has done its fair share. Apparently not, I blame my genes for my chains to service and empathy. I never wanted to lead. I wanted a simple and quiet life. Too bad, it's been loud for quite some time. When you've spent most of your life resisting a path that you still end up on anyway, it's bound to define you as a person.

As a result, the team conducted a study, published in JAMA Internal Medicine , that reveals adult Black patients were significantly more likely to be restrained in EDs compared with all other ED patients.
