In this conversation, Dr. Myles Durkee discusses his journey into psychology, focusing on the dynamics of race, culture, and identity. He shares insights from his dissertation on racial microaggressions and the concept of 'acting white,' exploring how these experiences affect young adults. He explores the concept of code switching, its implications in professional settings, and the unique challenges faced by Black professionals, particularly Black women. The discussion also touches on the impact of DEI policies on research, the intersectionality of identities, and the experiences of Black psychologists. Dr. Durkee emphasizes the need for open conversations about code switching, especially for younger generations, and highlights the potential for a future where code switching is a voluntary practice rather than a necessity.
