This event is included in a series of seminars organised in collaboration with the Therapy and Social Change Network.
This session explores why the process of racialisation is integral in understanding racism in mental health. To this liberal racism is contextualised in our current political climate, looking at how racism is made acceptable through policies and spaces, not individual prejudices. The War on Terror and security policies takes a central focus in this regard. This session will also provide broader considerations for ethical issues regarding the location of politics in mental health.
