In April, psychiatrist Aruna Khilanani gave a lecture at Yale’s Child Study Center titled, “The Psychopathic Problem of the White Mind,” where she referred to white people as “demented, violent predators,” and stated that she fantasized about shooting them in the head, among other extremely inappropriate comments. Her lecture is just one of the many toxic offshoots of anti-racism and Critical Race Theory infecting American society and schools. Yale addressed the controversial lecture in a statement, ultimately deciding to post the audio of the lecture to a limited audience; Yale appears to have bowed to “free expression” and has not denounced Khilanani’s hate speech in any way.
Khilanani seems to be embracing the publicity generated by her lecture, and despite being a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, appears to lack the self-awareness to understand how her speech is hateful, violent, and completely inappropriate.
