Dear Colleagues Apologies for cross-posting See details of an event below Sincerely Sushrut The Brahmin on the C-ouch!: Caste, thread baring, and cultural psychotherapy Seminar at University of Edinburgh, 29 November 2018, 1600-1730 h. 6th floor staff room, Chrystal Macmillan Building. Univ. Edinburgh, UK Summary People historically subordinated as ‘untouchable’ within Indian society have long invested their aspirations in higher education as the means achieve to full citizenship. Yet evidence is mounting that caste discrimination, & its intersection with gender and class, persists within even the most prestigious Indian universities. Mental health dimensions of caste related identity distress and interventions remain unexplored. Recently, a Brahmin professor met with a Dalit psychiatrist to explore the former's caste identity distress. This seminar is the first reported intervention over six months of regular clinical anthropologically applied individually therapy sessions, with a follow up six months later.
