Manage episode 394914487 series 3519350
Speaking up about Palestinian humanity is such an important topic especially in the field of psychology which prides itself in trying to address and treat human mental suffering. In fact, understanding the impact of geopolitical conflict is a must if we want to challenge racism. Otherwise how can we adequately show up for American Arab, Middle Eastern, and North African (AMENA) colleagues, students, and clients? Listen to our conversation with Dr. Khaghani, the advocacy committee co-chair from the AMENA-Psychological Association.
