As an African American studies major at Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University (FAMU), I was introduced to psychology by Dr. Kobi Kambon, my Black Psychology instructor and past president of the Association of Black Psychologists. This seminal work by Dr. Robert V. Guthrie, a graduate of FAMU, honors the fortitude of early African American psychologists and promotes both critical thinking and self-reflection. This work prompted me to change my major to psychology and define my clinical research program.
