Abstract

This article highlights the invisible power those in racial and gendered privilege continue to hold in the contemporary United States and the harmful psychological effects of this power on both those it oppresses and, importantly, those who wield it. A lack of empathy and an inability for compassion arise in individuals holding sociopolitical and cultural power, and we highlight how this psychological condition is qualifiable as psychosis and question why it has not been discussed as such in the literature until now. We also, however, bring attention to the invisible psychological power that marginalized populations in the United States hold, invisible because it has been left largely unrecognized by mainstream cultural forces. By centering the ways American cultural minorities successfully navigate multiply oppressive structural systems, we conclude with a reflection on how intersectional feminism can offer a philosophical lens through which to mitigate the unhealthy developmental outcomes and effects of White heteronormative male power.

权力的隐形:当代美国发展的文化生态》。
这篇文章强调了在当代美国,那些拥有种族和性别特权的人继续掌握着无形的权力,以及这种权力对那些受压迫的人造成的有害心理影响,更重要的是,对那些掌握这种权力的人造成的有害心理影响。我们强调了这种心理状况是如何被定性为精神病的,并质疑为什么直到现在才有文献对此进行讨论。不过,我们也提请大家注意美国边缘化人群所拥有的无形心理力量,这种力量之所以无形,是因为主流文化力量基本上没有认识到这一点。通过以美国文化少数群体成功驾驭多重压迫性结构系统的方式为中心,我们最后反思了交叉女权主义如何提供一个哲学视角,以减轻白人异性恋男性权力带来的不健康发展结果和影响。
