Moral distress arises when a physician is unable to take the action they know is right\, due to constraints outside their control\, from not feeling comfortable speaking up to feeling the need to compromise on clinical care.  This session will focus on how physicians can reconcile their preferred action with the actions available to them.  Participants will gain strategies to address such dilemmas in their professional environment so as to lessen the adverse impact on the career journey. \nRebekah Apple\, MA\, DHSc\nDirector\, Master’s of Medical Management\, Carnegie Mellon University Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy\nRebekah Apple is also Carnegie Mellon faculty\, teaching organizational ethics in the MMM program and Applied Ethical Analysis to graduate students from all CMU colleges.

During medical school and psychiatric residency\, she began a second career as a documentary filmmaker\, co-producing Closets Are Health Hazards: Gay and Lesbian Physicians Come Out and Lesbian Physicians on Practice\, Patients\, and Power. In response to the 1992 election in which the Republican Party used homophobia as a fundraising tool (while her father was H.W. Bush’s Secretary of Commerce and then chief fundraiser)\, she co-produced and directed Straight from the Heart\, which received an Academy Award™ nomination. Dee produced or co-produced a total of 9 documentaries on homophobia including Out for a Change: Addressing Homophobia in Women’s Sports; All God’s Children; DeColores; and No Secret Any More: The Times of Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon. These films have received a total of 46 awards—from LGBTQ+\, Black\, Latina\, Latin American\, and Aging Media film festivals\, including best of show awards\, grand jury awards\, and audience awards\, in the U.S.\, U.K.\, Australia\, Cuba\, Mexico\, and Italy. The films have touched people’s lives across the world\, changed people’s minds about homophobia\, and improved the lives of LGBTQ+ individuals. Dee and spouse\, who is also a psychiatrist\, Nanette Gartrell\, worked to eliminate homophobia in the DSM. \nRadical Harmonies is the first in-depth study of the women’s music festivals of the 1970’s and 1980’s. This full-length documentary chronicles the Women’s Music Cultural Movement and its evolution from a “girl with guitar” to a revolution in the roles of women in music and culture. The movement gave birth to an alternative industry that changed women and music forever. In addition\, the first surveys of women’s health\, with attention to lesbian health\, were conducted at these music festivals. \n  \n  URL:https://amwa-doc.org/event/radical-harmonies-film-discussion/ CATEGORIES:Everyone,Webinar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240624T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240624T213000 DTSTAMP:20260618T093718 CREATED:20251029T213516Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251029T213516Z UID:15636-1719230400-1719264600@amwa-doc.org SUMMARY:#EndGunViolence Lobby Session DESCRIPTION:Register for Lunch & Lobby Sessions  Register for After Hours Lobby Session \nMondays – May 20\, June 3\, 17\, 24\n#EndGunViolence Lunch & Lobby Sessions: 12 – 2 pm ET                #EndGunViolence After Hours Lobby Sessions: 8 – 9:30 pm ET \n          \nLearn more about the Newtown Action Alliance URL:https://amwa-doc.org/event/endgunviolence-lobby-session-12/ CATEGORIES:Everyone END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240624T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240624T210000 DTSTAMP:20260618T093718 CREATED:20251029T213522Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251029T213522Z UID:15637-1719259200-1719262800@amwa-doc.org SUMMARY:Voices from the Silenced: Pre-Roe Abortion Stories Discussion DESCRIPTION:AMWA partners to present the film production of a new play\, Voices from the Silenced: Pre-Roe Abortion Stories\nView Film\, Then Join Us for Playwright Discussion on June 24th at 8 pm ET\nTune in for the June 24 Playwright Discussion \n   Watch the Film \nAbout the Film: In the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision\, overturning Roe v. Wade\, Victoria Rue and Martha Boesing\, two friends with extensive theater history\, living in a senior community in Northern California\, felt the need to do something\, so they solicited stories from other women about having abortions pre-Roe v.

Wade and will now be facing again.
