  • After visiting the Whitney Plantation in Louisiana with his daughter, medical student Dr. Russell J. Ledet felt like he wanted to make a statement about how far African-Americans have come since the days of slavery. He brought 14 other medical students to the plantation to pose for an inspirational photo that eventually went viral. The students have since formed The 15 White Coats, an organization that helps spread positive imagery to inspire young children of color and also helps lift the financial burden while applying to medical school.

    I love Kelly’s show, I love what she stands for, I love how she uses her platform. It’s positive, it’s not just fluff and playing weird games or giving away random money it’s about substance and purpose and change for better. 👍🏻 good on you

    something that happened to a people 400 years ago or more, cannot continue to define them for the rest of their history

      But we should never forget that it happened. That’s why history is taught....so we never repeat history....you probably don’t understand the gratitude of what happened or you’re just plain ignorant. Imagine if something similar like so had happened to your “people”, you’d not only be greatly impacted, but your kids kids would be, and you wouldn’t know then but that (to a degree far more than other races living in the US) would define how your culture/race is averagely treated for the rest of their lives up until this present day...so yeah I believe it does need to be acknowledged and known throughout our continuing history.
