A Forensic and Ethics-Based View of Carter’s "Racism and Psychological and Emotional Injury"

Yale University, ezra.griffith{at}yale.edu

The psychological effect that racism has on individuals is of significant interest to mental health professionals. But it is of particular interest to those professionals who treat the clinical dimensions of the trauma to those who are involved in the assessment of the trauma for forensic purposes. Robert T. Carter provides a systematic, disciplined, science-based review of the evidence bearing on this subject in his article in this issue. He also adds to his review and synthesis some novel and creative recommendations that will have considerable impact on the field. This commentary focuses on certain aspects of Carter’s work from an ethics-based and forensic dimension. I also suggest slight modifications of his contributions in an attempt to make them more user-friendly for the forensic specialist.
