In this episode, Wendy speaks with clinical psychologist Doris Chang about her work on race, ethnicity, culture, and other dimensions of social identity as they shape psychological experience and mental health treatment. They discuss a number of topics, including: Critical Consciousness as the ability to recognize and analyze systems of inequality, and the commitment to take action against these systems; that race is a social construct, not a biological fact; the impact of race on measures of well-being and health; how she brings critical consciousness into the classroom, and how it unfolds with students; the role of contemplative practice in becoming aware of systems of oppression; her research on these training programs; where contemplative science needs to go next, and other topics.
