I’ve had an idea. As we know, Clinical Psychology (and psychology in general) still continues to hold a strong white, middle class identity… (1/6)

Are there any self help books that acknowledge capitalism?

Giving oppressed people superhuman attributes is also a form of dehumanization

@NuanceIsReal Hi Paulette, thank you so much for sharing and thinking of me! I would love to contribute in some way so will have a think about how best to. Much appreciated

[Jessica Davies @Jessica_D____]

Still so happy from submitting my thesis last week ☀️ & eternally grateful to everyone involved. Tried to stay authentic throughout…from consent forms to data collection & the Black feminist literature which shaped the whole thing. Next we aim to publish & get the word out!

PLEASE RT- I need to speak to ONE more practitioner working with/having previously supported Black YW & girls in a community-based/ grassroots capacity! Interviews are held online, up to 60 minutes, with 1-2 other practitioners from across orgs. They've been beautiful so far!

Clinging to my roots real bad 🤣 #StayingMeInCP

We live on a planet where food literally grows on trees, & water falls from the sky, but instead of cooperating in solidarity & mutual aid, so we can all enjoy this earthly paradise, we decided to create things like the 8 hour work day, credit scores, & school lunch debt.

[Jessica Davies @Jessica_D____]

The last day of teaching pretty much summed up my doctorate journey so far. By far the best part has been meeting such precious angels along the way. Stressed but grateful! We got this!

[Jessica Davies @Jessica_D____]

Good morning, if you’re expecting to hear from me, flu currently has me by the lapels! I’ll be in touch asap. Thanks for understanding!

[Jessica Davies @Jessica_D____]

@EverSoJones Amazing, thank you!

[Jessica Davies @Jessica_D____]

Re-sharing this in the hopes of speaking to Black girls and young women who attend community organisations. Please share with any young people and/or organisations that might be interested. Feel free to email [email protected] if you would like more information

There is scope for young people’s spaces to happen online too (if preferred), will just need to think with orgs about making sure they have access

[Jessica Davies @Jessica_D____]

Just FYI, I’m happy (and was assuming I would) travel to organisation spaces to meet young people, as long as that works for everyone. I can also do this as many times as necessary ahead of the focus group sessions to build relationships. Practitioner spaces will be held online.

[Jessica Davies @Jessica_D____]

@EverSoJones Thank you for your question! I would come to the organisation (provided that works for you!). Happy to come along to build relationships ahead of the session too, if helpful.
