This reading group is an opportunity to grasp the many aspects of Gail Lewis and her work before her upcoming visit to PINC. She is a British writer, psychotherapist, researcher, and activist who trained at the Tavistock. She engages in work that is both personal and political and includes thinking about psychoanalytic theorists such as Klein and Bion, as well as integrating black feminist theory. Her writing is accessible and beautiful and creates an environment in which we can expand our thinking in many directions.

CE Credits offered: 1.5

Course Objectives

After completing this course participants will be able to:

  1. Participants will analyze how Lewis uses psychoanalytic concepts to understand affect, trauma, belonging, and dislocation within racialized and gendered social structures.
  2. Participants will evaluate how Lewis both uses and critiques psychoanalytic traditions, considering the limits of classical psychoanalysis for understanding racialized subjectivity and collective histories.
