A clinical psychologist tells his story of navigating the field of psychology as a gay Black man. In How I Know White People Are Crazy and Other Stories, Dr. Jonathan Lassiter pulls back the curtain on the mental health system and reveals the hurdles that Black psychologists and students are forced to endure in the field. He tackles how white ideology has harmed Black patients and how it dominates America's mental health practices. As a Black gay man working as a psychologist under culturally insensitive supervisors and colleagues in America, he grows more frustrated with the exclusive talk of Sigmund Freud, and the narrowness of psychology study, with no one like him to vent to. All this takes a mental and physical toll on him. Using his expertise in research, his own therapy, and keeping a healthy dose of hip-hop/R&B music in his ears, Dr. Lassiter discovered a way where we can center culture in our healing. Through a series of essays, he demands that the lived and cultural experiences of people of color, LGBTQ+, and disabled communities are made a part of psychology practices so that we can understand, live in, and navigate this frustrating world. This thought provoking, funny, and searing indictment of the mental health system for patients, students, and professionals alike will leave you thinking differently about the psychologists in your life.
