Unsinking and The Imperative of African Psychology

Dr. Otis Williams, Chair of the Department of Counseling at Bowie State University, joined us to discuss his founding of the African Psychology Student Association and annual conference. We discussed the meaning, value, and necessity of African Psychology and counseling, including what it means to be “African,” and the diaspora-wide impact of Western approaches to the study and practice of psychology on Black/African people in the United States and around the world.
