My colleagues and I have launched a petition at change.org to encourage the American Psychological Association (APA) and the Association of Psychological Science (APS) to make a clear statement denouncing Psychology Today’s recent article. And to make clear to the public that Psychology Today is a magazine that in no way represents the best of the knowledge base in our profession. Please share broadly. Anyone can sign of course, but please indicate in the notes when you sign at change.org if you are a psychologist and an active APA/APS member.

Spread the word.

I signed it because I read the article and it was bs. The journal should be held accountable. Just a note, the link doesn’t work. They have managed to remove the article so others can’t read it. I don’t know how to find another copy, but I figured whoever started the petition should be aware.

Seriously, they need to be held accountable. Here’s a link to the article hosted on Black Voices. The internet is forever, motherfuckers; you can’t just put shit out there and then try to make it go away when an uproar happens. You are accountable.
