Integrating Social Justice and Psychology

Roderick J. Watts

Georgia State University

This article seeks to extend the model Goodman et al. advanced for making counseling psychology training more useful in the struggle for social justice. In addition to affirming the ideas of Goodman et al., this article offers some specific examples of how conventional, micro-level ideas in U.S. psychology can be scaled upward to be useful across multiple levels of social analysis. The author offers a critique of Goodman et al.’s near exclusive focus on multicultural perspectives in psychology by introducing ideas from the "radical school" of Black psychology to make the point that people with a history of oppression can have different training needs than those with a history of privilege.
