I think the way you applied the difference between being ‘silent’ and ‘silenced’ here was excellent. This reading of the clinical situation reveals how it is not only important to understand what is said, but also what is not said. I agree with your verdict of Leslie having been silenced. This reading displays the incredible nuance of navigating the clinical environment especially when considering the ways in which implicit bias may inform what we do or do not perceive.
