The Cultural Betrayal of Black Women and Girls
American Psychological Association (Verlag)
978-1-4338-3888-0 (ISBN)
With anti-Black racism uniquely impacting Black women and girls who are sexually victimized, a unifying, empirically testable framework with a critical race perspective to examine Black women and girls' experiences of sexual violence is warranted. Dr. Jennifer M. Gómez created cultural betrayal trauma theory (CBTT) to expand the limiting assumption in the dominant theoretical and methodological literature on the impact of violence that traumas, such as rape, are solely interpersonal. In CBTT, Dr. Gómez builds on Black feminist scholarship, ethnic minority trauma psychology, and betrayal trauma theory to provide a theoretical framework for examining the impact of violence on marginalized peoples across the lifespan.
The Cultural Betrayal of Black Women and Girls is the first book to use the CBTT research to contribute to academic and national discussions regarding anti-Black racism and sexual abuse. Using CBTT as a foundation, this book incorporates transdisciplinary scholarship on racism, intersectional oppression and intersectionality, sexual abuse against Black women and girls, cultural competency and critical consciousness in therapy, and healing in the community into a single resource for understanding and addressing oppression and sexual abuse on individual, institutional, and societal levels.
Jennifer M. Gómez, PhD, board member and chair of the Research Advisory Committee at the Center for Institutional Courage, is an assistant professor at Boston University School of Social Work and Center for Innovation in Social Work & Health. She is also a member of the Scientific Committee at the International Society for the Study of Trauma & Dissociation (ISSTD) and the American Psychological Association (APA) Presidential Task Force for Culturally Informed Trauma & Grief Kits. Additionally, Dr. Gómez was a guest co-editor of two special issues in Journal of Trauma & Dissociation: Discrimination, Violence, & Healing in Marginalized Communities (2021) and Self Injury & Suicidality: The Impact of Trauma & Dissociation (2015). Finally, she is a former fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS) at Stanford University (2021-22), National Academy of Sciences (NAS) Kavli Fellow (2019), and Ford Fellow (2015–16; 2018–19). Having published over 100 peer-reviewed journal articles, book chapters, other scholarly writings, professional development documents, and pieces for the general public in the areas of violence & inequality, Dr. Gómez created cultural betrayal trauma theory (CBTT) as a Black feminist theoretical framework for empirically examining violence and mental, physical, behavioral, and cultural health outcomes for Black and other marginalized youth, young adults, and elders within the impactful context of structural inequality. Her work has already advanced thinking in violence research, with invitations to share her research and its implications as a plenary speaker at the International Society for the Study of Trauma & Dissociation (ISSTD) International Conference (2021), panelist at the Stanford University CASBS' Social Science for a World In Crisis Series (2021), invited speaker at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, & Medicine (NASEM) Action Collaborative on Preventing Sexual Harassment in Higher Education Public Summit (2019, 2020), and invited speaker at University of Toronto (2019, 2021) and University of Michigan (2019, 2021), among others. Her work has had a demonstrative public impact, with over 638,000 readers of her article (2019) detailing CBTT and sexual abuse in the Black community in The Conversation.
