Abstract

Since the murder of George Floyd in 2020, a renewed and more mainstream attention to systemic racism emerged. Critical Race Theory (CRT) has permeated the larger public discourse around race more than ever before. Yet, social, scientific, and political backlash intended to silence conversations about the systemic and power-driven nature of racism have also characterized these years. 30+ years have passed since CRT's introduction as a critical analysis of how the legal system fails minoritized groups; 20+ years have passed since CRT's introduction into the social psychological field. Although psychology provides a strong foundation for the CRT tenets, incorporating CRT into the field of psychology has lagged behind many other fields (e.g., sociology, education). In two installments, this special issue (re)introduces psychological researchers to CRT and Psychological Critical Race Theory (PCRT), underscores CRT's importance and limitations in the context of psychological research, features novel applications and directions in CRT, and addresses the current political climate of opposition to discussions of CRT. This second installment looks outward highlighting psychological research applying (P)CRT frameworks to advance racial justice. We conclude with reflections on the history of CRT and PCRT and the shifts necessary in our scholarship-activism to dismantle systems of racial oppression.

改变种族不平等制度:运用批判性种族心理学促进种族公正
自 2020 年乔治-弗洛伊德(George Floyd)被谋杀以来,系统性种族主义重新受到主流社会的关注。批判种族理论(Critical Race Theory,CRT)比以往任何时候都更广泛地渗透到公众关于种族问题的讨论中。然而,社会、科学和政治方面的反弹也是这些年的特点,这些反弹旨在压制关于种族主义的系统性和权力驱动性质的对话。自 CRT 作为对法律体系如何辜负少数群体的批判性分析问世以来,30 多年过去了;自 CRT 被引入社会心理学领域以来,20 多年过去了。虽然心理学为 CRT 的信条提供了坚实的基础,但将 CRT 纳入心理学领域却落后于许多其他领域(如社会学、教育学)。本特刊将分两期向心理学研究人员重新介绍 CRT 和心理学种族批判理论 (PCRT),强调 CRT 在心理学研究中的重要性和局限性,介绍 CRT 的新应用和新方向,并探讨当前反对讨论 CRT 的政治气候。第二部分向外展望了应用(P)CRT 框架促进种族公正的心理学研究。最后,我们将对 CRT 和 PCRT 的历史进行反思,并对我们的学术-行动主义进行必要的转变,以消除种族压迫体系。
