Racial Identity Development in the Spotlight

Do psychologists consider themselves to be scientists, and why
is that a complicated question to answer? How do we develop our
sense of identity during childhood? What is white racial
identity, and why is it important to be studied? Ursula Moffitt,
a postdoc at Northwestern University, will tackle all of these
questions and much more during this episode about the psychology
behind racial identity development.
