I was told to contact my representative here in Corpus Christi, Texas, so I did, and he told me to register at VA. gov, in which I did, and the only records I would be able to get are from the clinic. That was my help. In the meantime, I am a 67-year-old African American female with a disability that has gotten worse over the years, and the only thing the clinic does is try to kill me. They allowed my blood pressure to get up to 218/126, which has now affected my heart and I must take nitroglycerin, all because they would not give me my medication for blood pressure that they prescribed. I don't know if this is the right forum for this, but please explain why some of us get help and others are treated as though we don't matter. I no longer trust the clinic. Also, why am I being prescribed medication (metformin) that has been recalled for at least two years? Are they trying to kill off all of the minorities? I have lost all faith in the people that I was willing to die for.Response by SPC Private RallyPoint Member made Feb 17 at 2022 10:44 AM2022-02-17T10:44:09-05:002022-02-17T10:44:09-05:00CW2 Tilo Stanley7531646<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I would like to read something about Veterans that served with a Green Card.Some one,like me served during War time in a War Zone.

I and several other african american veterans in my state have been denied several times or delayed when trying to get disability benefits. I trained myself to do and help other veterans obtain disablity benefits. I noticed that veterans that I help that are not african americans get their benefits faster and with no problems. Some have not served any time other than training while on active duty. I truly understand systematic racism. My question is what can you or are you doing to help African American veterans in the southern states other than talk about the problems?<br />Peter Dais [login to see] <br />I am currently waiting for claims since 2009 to be settled.Response by CPL Peter Dais made Feb 24 at 2022 12:18 PM2022-02-24T12:18:25-05:002022-02-24T12:18:25-05:00SGT Private RallyPoint Member7541830<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My second question. <br /><br />Mr. May upon discovering the lump and notifying my doctor I felt isolated with zero information about breast cancer and not even a number to call to ask questions or seek help. <br /><br />Is it possible for the VA to institute a standardized protocol that will go into action the moment a woman reports a lump or change in their breasts. This waiting for imaging and blood tests is diffcult. It just takes to long and leaves women in the dark.<br /><br />Education on this issue should be standard at every appointment a woman has plus information in clinics.Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made Feb 24 at 2022 12:44 PM2022-02-24T12:44:59-05:002022-02-24T12:44:59-05:00Sgt Sharon Brooks7541836<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There is a great need for a panel to investigate the disparity in how disability cases are handled and awarded. There is a huge disparity between male and female ratings and between white and other races. So if I am a AA female I am at the bottom. The state of Florida would be a good place to start.Response by Sgt Sharon Brooks made Feb 24 at 2022 12:47 PM2022-02-24T12:47:19-05:002022-02-24T12:47:19-05:00Sgt Sharon Brooks7541875<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have been turned denied a disability rating and increase twice so far. So now I have my case submitted to wait another 3 to 5 years to see if its denied again. I know half the problem is the 2 VSO's who filed them didn't know how to write it up properly. The majority of the proof is in my active duty records and the rest I submitted. The other reasons are sexism and racism. For those who say I am wrong read the comments on half of these veteran boards and blogs and half the proof is there. How long before real change will happen?Response by Sgt Sharon Brooks made Feb 24 at 2022 1:00 PM2022-02-24T13:00:49-05:002022-02-24T13:00:49-05:00PO1 Private RallyPoint Member7541883<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Where is the link to join this live?Response by PO1 Private RallyPoint Member made Feb 24 at 2022 1:03 PM2022-02-24T13:03:15-05:002022-02-24T13:03:15-05:00Andi Martinez7541895<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Thank you all for joining the event and typing your questions in the chat.

Any plans to do more with the PRIDE program for gay veterans? More Veteran Care Coordinators (VCCs)? More classes? More opportunities for gay vets to tell their stories within VA blogs and the No Veteran Behind Podcast?<br /><br />2. Any plans to create a similar program providing resources for transitioning to black veterans?<br /><br />3. Finally, who can I contact about doing a guest post on the VA blog? I never received an response from the official VA blog email.Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made Feb 24 at 2022 3:35 PM2022-02-24T15:35:32-05:002022-02-24T15:35:32-05:001SG James Kelly7592579<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am a minority vet:<br />Retired 1SG<br />Combat Arms<br />4 year degreeResponse by 1SG James Kelly made Mar 26 at 2022 5:15 PM2022-03-26T17:15:09-04:002022-03-26T17:15:09-04:00SGT Lenard Kasst7601621<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Why are we not all being treated the same, we are Vietnam veterans.Response by SGT Lenard Kasst made Mar 31 at 2022 7:31 PM2022-03-31T19:31:33-04:002022-03-31T19:31:33-04:00SSG Donald Bramley8464600<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>It is with regret that I had not discovered this Live discussion on Black History and LGBTQ+ on 2/24/2023.
