"UCLA Medical School Urges Abolition of Borders, Dismisses Crisis as 'Imagined': Report"

First-year medical students at UCLA's medical school were reportedly assigned readings advocating for the abolition of borders as a "medical intervention" in a required course on "Structural Racism and Health Equity." The assigned documents included scholarly papers and interviews with activists calling for a "no borders system" and attributing health disparities among migrants to border enforcement, capitalism, war, and climate emergency. A medical transparency group, Do No Harm, criticized the school for promoting "absurd descent into anarchic views of national borders," while the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
