For All the People

Letter from Lynn A. Ferguson, MD, Grand Rapids, Michigan, American College of Gastroenterology,

to Leonidas H. Berry, saying that he was sorry that Berry did not choose to attend the meeting; noting that 2-3 African American doctors and African American interns attended "the only hitch" was that the hotel would not serve them food or lodging, and discussing his personal thoughts about needing to have a "patient attitude" and not let Berry's membership in the organization hinge on these sorts of things as it is "juvenile"
