Dr. Janet E. Helms, Professor Emeritus of Counseling Psychology at Boston College, is a leading figure in the study of race and racism. As an "evolving racial justice psychologist," her work focuses on demystifying the fictitious racial labels that shape societal dynamics. She is renowned for her contributions to racial identity theory, emphasizing how internalized racism affects both people of color and white individuals.
Dr. Helms developed models to help people of color recognize and undo the harmful effects of internalized inferiority and to help white people confront their internalized beliefs in racial superiority, which often lead to fear and avoidance of meaningful cross-racial interactions. Her work also extends to fairness in psychological assessment, challenging biases in standardized testing that reflect racial and environmental disparities rather than true ability.
Another key area of her work is social interaction theory, which addresses the power dynamics of race in interpersonal exchanges. Dr. Helms provides strategies to identify and correct missteps in cross-racial and intra-racial interactions, fostering more equitable relationships.
In summary, Dr. Helms strives to bring the pervasive influence of race and racism into focus, offering language and tools to create a more racially just society.
