PSYC 280D ST: Introduction to Black Psychology
This course will provide an overview of Black psychology and psychologists, both historic and contemporary, and their contributions to psychology. We will utilize various tools (e.g., media, discussions, interactive activities) to explore a range of topics that pertain to the psychological experiences of Black/African Americans such as racism and discrimination, achievement and schooling, racial identity, and mental health and wellness. Past contributions will be celebrated and used to highlight issues that continue to be addressed by contemporary research.
