The one where we discuss the harmful nature of a parent dictating racial identity to you
Emma speaks to senior mental health nurse Sophie Price about working on a mental health crisis team and and joining a transgender healthcare service. They discuss health anxiety caused by the pandemic and how mental and sexual health are linked. They discuss social identity theory, self esteem and gatekeeping blackness from your children. And they consider how mixed children would process racism if they are told they don’t get to claim blackness.
