Fear of Being: Black and White and... “Racial” and Individual Identities Public Lecture & Workshop by Harry W. Fogarty, PhD, Jungian Analyst FRIDAY PUBLIC LECTURE: “The Self and individualism exclude each other; the Self is relatedness, the Self doesn’t exist without relationship” (Jung, Nietzsche Seminar lecture 2, para. 6). This lecture on “Psyche and the Collective” will explore Jung’s reflections on the relationship between the individual and the collective as revisited by contemporary Jungians. Our entry point to this interrelationship will be an exploration of aspects of “race” as these manifest in Jung’s writings on his visits to America and Africa and in our own day. Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin in contrast with Antjie Krog’s Country of My Skull will frame our reflections. One might say that the material embedded for each of us in this topic is so familiar that it has gone unconscious; our enlightened knowing and political correctness has perhaps left us blind again. SATURDAY PUBLIC WORKSHOP: DONATIONS: Our Saturday morning workshop will offer participants an opportunity to deepen the material introduced in “Psyche and the Collective” Friday evening. We will explore in greater detail the “fear of going black” as well as the “fear of being white.” In addition to Jung’s work, we will draw upon the work of contemporary Jungians as well as critics of colonialism such as Frantz Fanon and Albert Memmi. We will utilize video materials and clinical vignettes to anchor our discussion. Harry Fogarty, PhD, is a Jungian analyst in New York City, a faculty member of the C. G. Jung Foundation, and a lecturer in psychiatry and religion at Union Theological Seminary.
