Radical healing incorporates individual and collective aspects of health and wellness within the context of racial and other forms of oppression. She also discussed evidence for each of the five tenets of the model, emphasizing conceptual and empirical research on radical hope. Dr. Neville concluded her talk by presenting five public policy implications to promote (mental) health equity, particularly among Black Americans. Dr. Neville is a professor of educational psychology and African American studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She is past president of the Society for the Psychological Study of Culture, Ethnicity and Race (APA Division 45). Dr. Neville’s research focuses on racial ideologies– especially color-blind racial ideology and racial identity attitudes– and healing from racism-related trauma.Link to original article Previous Article How Looking at Genetics and Networks Led to Solving a Quantum Gravity Problem Next Article White House and NIH Fireside Chat: The Neuroscience Behind the Youth Mental Health Crisis Print 109 Rate this article: No rating 0Upvote 0Downvote Leave a comment Name: Please enter a name.
