Louisville Medicine Editorial Board follows The Associated Press Stylebook for style guidelines. As of June 2020, AP style is to capitalize Black in a racial, ethnic or cultural sense, to
convey an essential and shared sense of history, identity and community among people who identify as Black, including those in the African diaspora and within Africa. AP style will
continue to lowercase the term white in racial, ethnic and cultural senses. Louisville Medicine will continue to follow the guidance of the AP Stylebook. For more information on this
decision, please visit apstylebook.com/blog_posts/16.
