| | | APSA_NY12-303 | | Community Symposium: Psychodynamic Explorations of Power, Gender, and Identity in Twenty First Century - Variants of the “Black Nanny — White Master” Syndrome Speakers: Dorothy E. Holmes, PhD (Bluffton, SC); Carlotta G. Miles, MD (Washington, DC); Bruce Sklarew, MD (Chevy Chase, MD) The black nanny caring for white babies in oppressive, racist contexts was a common occurrence in our culture up to the civil rights era. The psychodynamics of the black nanny’s impact on the identities of the whites reared in those circumstances are considered. The modern extensions of that history is manifest in nannies/au pairs of color from the Caribbean and Africa, and whites from Europe in their rearing of children in both Black and White families. Clinical data to illuminate psychodynamics of power, sexuality, defenses, and identity formation played out in these modern day expressions are presented. Implications for other relationships in our society with obvious power differentials that may or may not involve differences in color (e.g., the bank teller in relation to his/her employer and/or customer) are discussed.
