Episode 98 is an interview with Dr. Evan Auguste, an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Massachusetts Boston and a pre-licensed clinical psychologist at Ma’at Psychological Services. We delved into the concept of Black Liberation psychology, a crucial field aimed at addressing the mental health repercussions of structural anti-Blackness. Dr. Auguste's work focuses on developing community-based health interventions, like the Sawubona Healing Circles, that promote healing through an African-centered framework.  We also dive into the history and initiatives of the Association for Black Psychologists.    Continuing Education Credits (https://www.cbiconsultants.com/shop) BACB: 1.5 EthicsIBAO: 1.5 Cultural/EthicsQABA: 1.5 Ethics   Contact: https://www.evanauguste.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.evan.auguste/ https://twitter.com/SonDessalines https://www.umb.edu/faculty_staff/bio/evan_auguste   Links:  Sawubona Healing Circles https://abpsi.org/programs/sawubona/ Trayvon Martin  https://origins.osu.edu/article/justice-denied-killing-trayvon-martin-historical-perspective?language_content_entity=en   Black Lives Matter Movement https://blacklivesmatter.com/ SEED Collective https://scholarselevatingeqdiv.wordpress.com/ Moynihan Report https://web.stanford.edu/~mrosenfe/Moynihan's%20The%20Negro%20Family.pdf Black Family Summit https://blackfamilysummit.org/ Behaviour Speak Podcast Episodes Referenced Grant Bruno Episode https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-37-the-realities-of-autism-in-first-nations-communities-in-canada-with-grant-bruno-phd-candidate/ Bukky Akinwale Episode  https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-89-tales-by-moonlight-storytelling-for-youths-and-elders-in-a-historically-black-community-with-bukky-akinwale/ Malika Pritchett Episode https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-83-the-ethics-of-research-applying-a-human-rights-and-social-justice-lens-with-dr-malika-pritchett/ Articles Discussed: Auguste, E., Bowdring, M., Kasparek, S.
