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.

Meet the Author: Dr. Steven Cooper

Speakers: Hans Agrawal, MD (Cambridge, MA); Kenneth M. Newman, MD (Chicago, IL); Author: Steven Cooper, PhD (Cambridge, MA)

Book: A Disturbance in the Field: Essays in Transference/Counter-Transference Engagement.” The field, as Steven Cooper describes it, is comprised of the inextricably related worlds of internalized object relations and interpersonal interaction. His essays try to locate some of the most ineffable types of situations for the analyst to take up with patients, such as the underlying grandiosity of self-criticism; the problems of too much congruence between what a patient fantasizes about and the analyst’s anticipatory fantasies related to treatment. Provocatively, he takes up the analyst’s counter-transference to the psychoanalytic method itself, including a variety of levels of thinking about and not thinking the transference/counter-transference and his uses of reverie.
