101. Newfolk NDiF: Cultural Diversity, Alternative Medicine, & Folk Medicine Treatise prepared by a Penn State College of medicine professor on the importance of recognizing cultural diversity of health beliefs and practices. http://www.temple.edu/isllc/newfolk/medicine.html

New Directions in Folklore 1 (formerly the Impromptu Journal) July 1997 Newfolk NDiF Archive Issue 1 July 1997 Cultural Diversity, Alternative Medicine, and Folk Medicine David J. Hufford, Ph.D. Department of Humanities Penn State College of Medicine (Hershey Medical Center), This essay first appeared in Perspectives from the Humanities , a bi-monthly, in-house publication of the Humanities Department at the Penn State College of Medicine and, in a modified version, in the ethics column of the journal Alternative Ther apies in Health and Medicine Throughout its history the ethnic and cultural diversity of the U.S. population has grown constantly. During much of that time established American groups assumed that newcomers would be assimilated into existing cultural patterns; this was the "mel ting pot." Now, late in the 20th Century, this assimilation model has been recognized as neither a good description of what has happened nor a plausible prediction of what can happen as our population continues to diversify rapidly. The li nguistic, religious and other cultural patterns of American society are now more varied than ever, and medicine, like other institutions, works to develop appropriate methods for a pluralistic society. The physician entering practice in the year 2000 wil l face both a patient population and a set of professional values that require skills for negotiating cultural difference. In an essay entitled "Culture and Clinical Care" in JAMA (March 2, 1994), pediatrician Lee Pachter discussed the clinical importance of cultural differences in beliefs about health and disease, using the folk medical beliefs of Latinos to illustrate the point.

106. Health Care To Native Americans: United States 19th-Century Doctors'... Excerpts from comments made by white doctors on the nature of medical practice among Native Americans. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/if_you_knew/if_you_knew_04.html

United States 19th-Century Doctors' Thoughts about Native American Medicine Euroamerican doctors of the 19th-century almost invariably considered Native American medical technique to be inferior to their own practices: Examples displayed here are representative. At the same time, however, "Indian cures" were quite popular and very marketable among members of the general public. Prefaced to some of these "Indian cures" might be the name of a doctor, as in the patent medicine card here. Regardless of the general feeling of superiority that reflects a high degree of cultural imperialism, Euroamerican doctors were intrigued by Native American medicine. They wrote numerous articles that were published in medical journals, like those displayed here. However intrigued, Euroamerican doctors generally did not espouse the use of Native American medicine and would more often judge these techniques as uncivilized. This attitude was shared by the Office of Indian Affairs toward the close of the 19th- and opening of the 20th-century. It would shape government health care policy and ultimately lead to the education of Native Americans in white-dominated medical schools (See exhibit cases and Exhibit Case 2 [722x519 8-bit grayscale JPEG, 64273 bytes]
