While work has been done on the wartime and postwar growth of racial liberalism in intellectual life and policy, my project examines its effect on more personal interactions between blacks and whites in the field of medicine. In particular, I focus on changes in the clinical encounter between liberal psychiatrists and black patients in Harlem between 1938 and 1968. Having abandoned scientific racism, a cadre of Harlem psychiatrists and their allies fundamentally reshaped the psychiatric interaction with black patients, imagining that black Americans were just as psychologically and emotionally developed as white Americans. These liberal professionals shared the "universal mind assumption:" a largely unstated assumption that the human psyche developed and operated along one universal set of principles, no matter the skin color of the patient. This social imaginary of the clinic not only became a common-sense foundation for psychiatric thought and practice, but it helped redefine racial equality in the long civil rights era as a matter of emotional health. The first chapter explores the limited mental heath apparatus that existed for Harlem blacks in the 1930s, the scientific racism in the psychiatric literature, and the earliest attempts by white clinicians at Bellevue Hospital to offer a psychiatry that did not take innate black inferiority as a given. The second chapter and third chapters explores how, during World War II, a "psychiatric network" of psychiatrists and their allies in New York City's social welfare system developed to combat institutional racism and expand mental health care for black Harlemites. The fourth chapter analyzes how the universalization of American gender assumptions was critical to the process of imagining the black psyche as fully human. The fifth chapter explores the history of the Lafargue Clinic, a more left-leaning Harlem psychiatric clinic which had developed its own race-blind approach independently of the psychiatric network. Finally, the sixth chapter examines both the development of Harlem Hospital's own psychiatric wing and the decline of the race-blind creed's dominance as Black Power resurged in the late 1960s.
