Series 4:  Black Minds Matter: What We Can Learn from Liberation Psychology in the Era of George Floyd and Black Lives Matter

Now more than ever Communities of Color are suffering a double pandemic – COVID-19 and the mental/emotional effects of systemic racism. How can the field of psychology, of which only 4% are Black/African American, begin to address the needs of folks who have endured a 400-year history of oppression? We can turn to our Latin American neighbors and the principles of Liberation Psychology.  Founded by Ignacio Martín-Baró, Liberation Psychology seeks to actively understand the community wounds caused by oppressive sociopolitical structures, and the individual effects of violence, injustice, racism and poverty within those systems.  Join me in learning more about Liberation Psychology from my time studying in Mexico and a conversation about how the field can address the mental health wounds in Communities of Colors at a time when our country grapples with its own legacy of racism and oppression.
