Psychology has had a number of derogatory things to say about black and colonial people, most of which reinforce stereotyped images.
Beyond the Masks is an incisive and readable account of black subjectivity, exploring the role of power relations in the production of academic discourses. Amina Mama examines the history of imperial psychology, and the way in which the discipline has propagated racism. Beyond the Masks also offers an important theoretical perspective, and will appeal to all those studying ethnicity, gender and questions of identity.
