\n OK, Karen.<\/p>\n

White people who report feeling traumatized by interactions with someone of a different race tend to identify with white supremacist attitudes \u2014 even if they were never genuinely victimized, according to a new study published in the Journal of Multicultural Counseling and Development.<\/p>\n

The group of researchers\u00a0<\/span>invited 145 white Americans to share their anecdotes related to race for the report. They sought to explore race-based trauma, which \u201ccan be extremely harmful leading to intrusive thoughts about the incident (e.g., nightmares, flashbacks), avoidance (i.e., people and places that remind you of the incident) and hyper-vigilance, among other symptoms,\u201d study author Veronica E. Johnson told PsyPost.<\/p>\n

She and her colleagues wanted to understand why white people would report traumatic symptoms when the circumstances of the racial incident don\u2019t justify the outcome.<\/p>\n

Of the few \u201cwho did report symptoms of racial trauma, they were also found to hold beliefs of white racial superiority and were general<\/a>ly naive to systemic racism and white privilege,\u201d Johnson said, suggesting that white folks who make egregious claims against black people \u201csimply know little to nothing about [those issues].\u201d (See also: The Central Park \u201cKaren,\u201d Amy Cooper.)<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cFurther, it may be that a belief in white racial superiority makes one particularly susceptible to white fragility, or expectations for comfort in cross-racial interactions and low tolerance for race-based stress.\u201d<\/p>\n

The study found that while being targeted for one\u2019s race can indeed be traumatic \u2014 that\u2019s not usually the type white people experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen [white people] did report negative racial incidents, they tended to be vicarious experiences, where they were not the intended targets\u201d of racism, said Johnson. Aside from the occasional verbal insult, such as being called a \u201ccracker,\u201d she said that other negative experiences they discussed dealt with the violation of \u201cracial rules,\u201d such as being told to leave a predominantly black neighborhood.<\/p>\n

Johnson suggests that race-based education could play a big part in addressing the issue.<\/p>\n

White people who think they\u2019ve experienced racial trauma likely \u201cdo not have a complex understanding of race in the US and thus may erroneously equate their racial experiences with psychological harm,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, white Americans with a complex understanding of race app<\/a>ear to understand that racial discrimination, while uncomfortable for them, is not connected to harmful and dangerous consequences like it is for Americans of color.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
