“Upset to see that one of my favorite psychological science podcasts has not mentioned recent protests and Black Lives Matter in relation to psychology. There are so many applicable topics to discuss from microaggressions and their psychological impact, identity psychology, empathy, in and out groups, allyship, burnout, easing anxiety and more.
When COVID-19 happened, episodes were released immediately about how to stay entertained in quarantine and ease anxiety. But no comment on the humanity and oppression of others?

Update on this post. As of early September, Dr. Wu creates a 3 episode series to discuss Black mental health. In the episodes, Dr. Wu provided exactly what we needed in June during the spotlight on the BLM Movement. Although late, Dr. Wu acknowledged that shortcoming - more than once - and truly embodied the work of an anti-racist ally. I appreciate this and the insightful three part series that will certainly support all of our work in understanding the complexities of Black mental health and/or being better allies.”
