Offering fresh and exciting approaches to solving global problems,
this book creatively views challenging social issues through the
lens of racial and ethnic psychology. As the demographic makeup of
the American population continues to evolve, understanding and
addressing the psychological needs of ethnic minorities in the
United States becomes more important to the overall health and
well-being of society. This three-volume set is the first
publication to explicitly tackle social issues from the perspective
of racial and ethnic psychology. It uniquely presents racial and
ethnic psychological perspectives on topics such as media, criminal
justice, racism, climate change, gender bias, and health and mental
health disparities. Volume one introduces readers to the basic
scientific concepts of racial and ethnic minority psychology and
then examines the intersectionality of race, ethnicity, gender, and
sexual orientation. It also addresses how race and ethnicity affect
communication styles, leadership styles, and media. The second
volume discusses the experiences of individuals within racial and
ethnic minorities, including overt racism, covert racism, and
colonialism, and addresses how ethnic minority psychology plays a
role in our educational system, poverty, global climate change, and
sustainability. The third volume covers ethics in health and
research, considers the causes of health and mental health
disparities, and identifies diversity initiatives that can improve
the health and well-being of all citizens, not just racial and
ethnic minority citizens. Utilizes concepts of racial and ethnic
minority psychology to address important issues of the 21st
century, offering unique insights into the nature of today's
real-world problems Presents racial and ethnic psychological
perspectives on topics such as media, the criminal justice system,
sexual orientation, poverty, climate change, and sustainability
Provides much-needed alternative perspectives on human behavior
other than the theories, systems, and practices that are largely
derived from Anglo-American research using white subjects
