Description

by Mph Denese Shervington MD (Author)

The pages of Healing is the Revolution invite readers into a discussion of the nameable and unnamable struggles African Americans face in a tense, high stress, and despairing existence in the United States. It begins by laying bare Black American history and why it continues to affect modern day African Americans mentally and physically. Along the way it illustrates the effects of decades of compounding structural oppression, societal disfranchisement, and psychological backlash on individuals living in an environment where hate speech and hate-driven actions and policy are no longer underground. But Healing is the Revolution does not stop there. It also pays equal attention to providing steps and opportunity for healing on the individual, family, and community level. It reveals opportunities for action and motivation for change. And, it guides the reader through inspirational and motivational activities to support this renewed and/or continued struggle. Part an intellectual book that informs and a self-help book that heals, Healing is the Revolution is penned by psychiatrist, professor, and President and CEO of The Institute of Women and Ethnic Studies (IWES), Denese Shervington, MD, MPH, and draws from her intersectional career in public health clinical and academic psychiatry. A nationally esteemed mental health advocate and programmer, in 2018 Dr. Shervington received the Award for Excellence in Service and Advocacy from the American Psychiatric Association. In 2012, she received the Jeanne Spurlock Minority Fellowship Achievement Award from the American Psychiatric Association. Dr. Shervington is a member of the American College of Psychiatrists. She has authored several papers in peer-reviewed journals addressing health disparities, the social determinants of health, and resilience in underserved communities
