Photo of Mary Eliza Mahoney used as Rebecca Crumpler Photo of Georgia E. Lee Patton Washington used as Rebecca Crumpler AI generated (very obvious) photo of "Rebecca Crumpler"

It's #BlackHistoryMonth! Feb 3 is National Women Physician's Day - the bday of Elizabeth Blackwell, the 1st woman to get an MD in the U.S. (1849).
