Jacquelyne Jackson, a sociologist, was the first black post-doctoral student and first black and first woman on the medical school faculty at Duke University. She always debunked the residents, particularly those whose misguided sympathies stereotype blacks as poverty-stricken. She is quick to point out that she was reared in an intact family, no rats or roaches—in short, that stereotyping is erroneous, however well intentioned.
