Racial Divide: Why Does It Happen? How We Can Fix It
from Psychology in Everyday Life: The Psych Files · host Michael Britt
Why does conflict emerge as it did in Baltimore among the police and the African-American community? Is it caused by poor parenting? Poverty? Joblessness? I provide a psychological perspective on the situation. I look at how stereotypes develop and conflict among groups develops. The solution is complex but the theories on these two issues give us some insight into what has to happen to resolve the problems.
