The results call into question how skilled are GP educators to teach elements of Indigenous health education such as racism, white privilege and cultural self-reflexivity. Unskilled educators can reinforce colonialism in curricula, including through minimisation of content. Stronger anti-racist pedagogy is urgently required in medical education. Vital to this is active research on educator preparedness, evidence-based teaching models and accountable curriculum accreditation.
