Beskrivning
This fully updated edition highlights new research on the impact of racism on people of color, emphasizing models of hope, healing, strength, resiliency, and resistance.Communities of Color are far from a monolith, encompassing a diversity of racial and ethnic backgrounds, migration experiences, languages, class, and political ideologies. With this diversity in mind, models of hope and resiliency are needed now more than ever. This new edition draws inspiration from both ancestors and current communities that continue to come together to reinvent legacies of resistance and activism that have been lifelines for generations.The first part of the book discusses the underlying conceptual and methodological framework that serves as the basis for the empirical results and applied interventions that follow. In the second part, chapter authors provide a deeper survey of the psychological, behavioral, physical, and educational impacts of racism. The final part of the book turns toward research and praxis focused on healing, helping to identify ways to disrupt racism and promote well-being on a societal and personal level. This reflects a growing recognition of People of Color not simply as victims of oppression, but as agentic individuals and communities capable of resistance, transformation, and liberation.With its skillful synthesis of voices and approaches, this work will appeal to a broad range of scholars and practitioners in clinical psychology and allied fields. The book seeks to step toward the future by beginning to build a foundation for the scholarship that sustains and empowers Communities of Color.
