I am having trouble finding sources about Josefa Zaratt. I have been able to find 2 primary sources. I want to find sources on other female Puerto Rican doctors to get an idea on what their day to day life was like.

Many African Americans started to head north to escape the south in order to be able to go to school. The University of Michigan was a popular cite for these women. Many white women were able to come here and study in medical school and soon a few Black women were able to as well. For us to understand women roles in medicine, it is important for us to understand wha they went through. As the field of medicine began to be dominated by white males, women saw a less and less chance to become physicians. The oppurtunitiy for women to study medicine became scarce in every aspect, job, schools, internships, practices, etc.
