#PsychologistsforBlackLives: Student Led Activism

This structured discussion called for feminists and social justice advocates to explore how they can stand against the senseless killing of innocent Black women, men, and children. It brought together psychology students, trainees, and psychologists to learn how #PsychologistsforBlackLives can become a part of their work. This discussion will be held at the Association for Women in Psychology 2017 Conference in Milwaukee, WI from 2:20:3:30.

#NotMyPresident

Psychologists for Black Lives is calling for a National Dialogue to discuss the impact of a Trump Presidency on the mental health of Black and Brown people, as well as strategies we can take to combat intolerance under Trump. We will also discuss how to stay engaged with those with whom we disagree in a way that honors our core values, and their humanity. We call on fellow students to take up the torch and organize this dialogue on their respective campuses.
