Psychology

 

Racism both infects and affects the mind in various ways. The mythology of white superiority and Black inferiority began simply as an idea. An idea that became accepted by the collective. Studying where this idea originated - the mind - and how it has shaped the collective behaviour of various groups of people worldwide, is vital for making steps towards global change.

Below are the major works we used to create our Psychology module. As psychology cannot be separated from both politics and culture, most of these books are at the junction of all three subjects.
