Abstract

Critical Race Theory (CRT) emerged as an identity‐conscious intervention within critical legal studies and has subsequently developed an interdisciplinary presence. We draw upon CRT perspectives to articulate five core ideas for a Critical Race Psychology (CRP). CRT perspectives (1) approach racism as a systemic force embedded in everyday society (rather than a problem of individual bias); (2) illuminate how ideologies of neoliberal individualism (e.g., merit, choice) often reflect and reproduce racial domination; (3) identify interest convergence as the typical source of broad‐based support for reparative action; (4) emphasize possessive investment in privileged identities and identity‐infused realities that reproduce racial domination; and (5) propose practices of counter‐storytelling to reveal and contest identity‐infused bases of everyday society. In summary, we propose a CRP that consider race not as one domain (among many) for psychological investigation but instead as a conceptual lens through which to analyze all of psychological science.

  • This centering situates racism in the minds and actions of individuals, while structural systems of power and oppression, even when named, are pushed to the margins.

    “Second, it situates racism in the minds and actions of individuals, while structural systems of power and oppression, even when named, are pushed to the margins (Salter & Adams, 2013; Syed, 2021).”

    From Studying Ethnic-Racial Identity among White Youth: White Supremacy as a Developmental Context (2022) · cites this paper as Salter & Adams, 2013

    In “The systemic character of racism” (page unavailable), the paper says conventional psychological accounts focus on individual prejudice rather than racism’s systemic foundations. “Counter-narratives as a foundation for a Liberation Psychology” says this focus obscures the systemic character of racism. The passages do not establish the added qualification that structural systems are pushed to the margins even when they are explicitly named. (LLM, conf=0.84)

  • The widespread uncritical adoption of racial categories, standardized or not, can erode awareness of the social and political histories of racial taxonomies and reify racial categories as natural kinds.

    “In fact, the widespread uncritical adoption of racial categories, standardized or not, can erode awareness of the social and political histories of racial taxonomies and reify racial categories as natural kinds [19, 30, 42, 43, 78, 100, 111].”

    From Towards a critical race methodology in algorithmic fairness (2020) · cites this paper as [100]

    The Synergistic foundations section cautions against essentializing identity or reifying problematic categories, supporting the concern about treating racial categories as fixed. The paper does not specifically say that widespread adoption of racial categories, standardized or otherwise, erodes awareness of the social and political histories of racial taxonomies or makes those categories appear to be natural kinds. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
