Them Not Us: Finding Racist States of Mind where You Least Expect with Joseph Reynoso, Ph.D. at MITPP

THEM NOT US: FINDING RACIST STATES OF MIND WHERE YOU LEAST EXPECT
PRESENTER: JOSEPH REYNOSO, Ph.D.

Psychoanalytic scholars have increasingly addressed the unconscious dynamics involved in racial prejudice. Unsurprisingly, the subjects of this work are frequently persons whose personalities (or parts thereof) are understood to be categorically racist. Following the results of the 2016 election, however, many Americans were confronted by the capacity seemingly non-racist individuals have to endorse social aggression in political leadership. Dr. Reynoso will challenge the method of pursuing racial hate in the mind of “the racist.” The presentation will describe how the pragmatic efficiency of racist templates defend against the ever-present threat of intolerable anxieties in all individuals.

The Pfeffer Center for Neuropsychoanalysis: The Mind of the Artist: October 26 – 27, 2018
New York Psychoanalytic Society & Institute: 247 E. 82nd Street, New York City

Speaking from a theoretical perspective, Friday evening’s panelists will consider the relation between artistic creativity and psychoanalytic treatment, the significance (if any) of the high incidence of affective disorders among literary and visual artists, the paradigm of art as reparation of early object relations, and the like. The relevance of Freud’s notion of sublimation to more recent explanations of the intra- and inter-psychic valuations of imaginative expression and the relationship of imagination to the self, to mechanisms of defense and agency, will be explored. Saturday morning’s session will be devoted to a discussion with literary and visual artists on the notion of art as play, the neurobiological aims of that instinct in the making of meaning, the relation of id and ego function to unconscious fantasy and its expression in art, and how artistic expression bears upon our neuroscientific understanding of pleasure and reward. A plenary session by Nobel Laureate Eric Kandel will be offered in the Continue reading The Pfeffer Center for Neuropsychoanalysis: The Mind of the Artist: October 26 – 27, 2018 at NYPSI
