Racial Melancholia, Racial Dissociation: David Eng on Mental Health and Asian American Identity

Please join David Eng on Wednesday, February 10th at 7-8 PM EST for a conversation about race, mental health and Asian American identity through the lens of his latest book, Racial Melancholia, Racial Dissociation: On the Social and Psychic Lives of Asian Americans, co-authored with Shinhee Han. Combining critical race theory with several strands of psychoanalytic thought and clinical practice, Eng and Han develop the concepts of racial melancholia and racial dissociation to investigate changing processes of loss associated with immigration, displacement, diaspora, and assimilation.
