Dr Solheim, thank you again for the important work you’re doing. Doctors Without Borders, one of the most widely admired medical associations in the world, has the concept of témoignage as one of its core principles. Témoignage translates to “bearing witness.”

In your post, you highlight the power of truthfully saying what you have seen and truthfully stating what you think.

In a time of profound uncertainty in our culture and polity, we will only find our way if we once again find the courage to participate, to bear witness, and to speak.

Your work here can inspire, and I am grateful to you for doing it.
