RECLAIMING WHAT'S MINE: THE ROLE OF DEPRIVATION IN ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOR IN YOUTH

Program Description

Dr. Huey Hawkins will explore Donald Winnicott’s conceptualization of the antisocial tendency of certain youth, including a focus on a case study and the foster care system in a large Midwestern city, intersecting with race and class barriers. There will be an emphasis on the role of deprivation as a mechanism for antisocial tendencies. Dr. Hawkins will speak from his experiences of nearly 12 years of working with a Black male child client in foster care. Dr. Hawkins will discuss his provision of a maternal environment during extremely tumultuous times in the client’s life.
