Abstract

The author discusses changes in race relations in the United States during the last 20 years and ways they have affected psychiatry and psychoanalysis. Of particular importance are: emergence of new black consciousness and surfacing of anti-white anger and white professional responses to them; ways of correcting persisting institutional racism, which has led to racial imbalance and limited interchange among black and white professionals; and the need for self-searching among white professionals.
