The “Acting White Accusation”: Racial Code Switching and Cultural Invalidation The Unpacked Project
-
- Society & Culture
Today we examine the dynamics of cultural invalidation, racial discrimination, and racial code-switching with Dr. Myles Durkee - Assistant Professor with the Department of Psychology at the University of Michigan.
His work has looked at the above to determine how these experiences influence important psychosocial outcomes like mental health, identity development, & academic achievement.
Broadly, his research examines how people of color navigate racial contexts, change their racial behavior to fit in certain contexts, and internalize messages about their cultural authenticity from people both inside and outside of their racial group.
