Haiti Or The Psychology Of Black by James Hillman
The Psychology of Black
A reflective, archetypal exploration of Haiti that reads the island’s history, religion, and social suffering as expressions of collective psychological forces; the work examines how Western attitudes and colonial violence project a fear and denigration of ‘blackness,’ and argues for understanding Haitian culture, especially Vodou and the legacy of revolution, as vital symbolic responses to trauma and displacement. Drawing on myth, imagination, and depth-psychological concepts, it urges a recognition of cultural soul-making and the need to confront shadowed aspects of history and psyche rather than dismissing them.
