BPSI Resources on Race, Diversity, and Otherness

Psychoanalytic and Interdisciplinary Voices

As one of many initiatives to fulfill BPSI’s Anti-Racism Commitment we offer this Resource Page to our colleagues and the public, in hopes of promoting reflection, dialogue, and psychoanalytic scholarship to address the problems of systemic racism.

We thank the many colleagues contributing to this Resources Page. In particular we thank the APsaA and the DPE Section on Diversities, whose resources list provided the base and inspiration for our BPSI Resources project. We thank Olga Umansky, BPSI’s Hanns Sachs Librarian and Archivist, for her invaluable work. We are deeply grateful to Deborah Choate, Karen Melikian, and Cecilia Mikalac for their recent donations of books to enrich our Social Awareness collection.

We envision this as an evolving Resources list being updated regularly, and we invite and welcome your suggestions. While the initial contributions are focused on race, we intend to build the list to include more resources on diversities and otherness. Please tell us your ideas here or by writing to Olga Umansky at library@bpsi.org, or by writing to any member of the BPSI Leadership Team: Jim Barron, Jack Foehl, Catherine Kimble, Dan Mollod, or Carole Nathan.
