Even though they mean well, content and trigger warnings could be more harmful than helpful.

Thanks to everyone who rolled out to our @abctnow symposium & connected afterwards! Special thank you to Stephanie Haft Aijah K. B. Goodwin, PhD, Jade Gallos & our discussant Monnica Williams for their amazing talks on RST in youth of color. #abct2022 #racialtrauma

So excited to be moderating an Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies panel discussion on best practices, advocacy, and treatment for stress and trauma in youth of color with Drs. Ryan DeLapp, Candace Mootoo, Ryan Matlow, and Wei-Chin Hwang. Stop by if you’re around!

My colleague Steven Roberts was recently invited to comment on a "debate" about diversity at a Association for Psychological Science journal. His experience was troubling and surreal, and lays bare the very biases he studies. He describes it in this important pre-print. 1/ psyarxiv.com/xk4yu

White privilege enables White researchers to claim authority on Black issues, while questioning the ability of Black people to conduct objective research.

If you are a psychological scientist, who is wondering the best way to take action, this is a concrete step. Reach out directly and express your thoughts about this egregious use of the editorial process to further systematic racism in our field.

Teaching a class on the Psychology of Trauma next semester for a community college in a state prison. Creating a syllabus from scratch for this brand new course. Anyone have any suggestions for textbooks (or must-reads) that would be especially thought-provoking for this setting?

The UCLA Psych Clinic is once again offering FREE therapy to BIPOC youth age 5-24 thanks to a generous grant from the Nicholas Endowment and we have open spots RIGHT NOW! Must be located in California. Not a study, no session limits, just evidence-based therapy.
