The unexpected transformations produced by the conjunction of COVID-19, the murder of George Floyd and the resurgence of Black Lives Matter highlight the importance of social psychological understandings and the need for a step change in theorization of the social. This paper focuses on racialization. It considers issues that social psychology needs to address in order to reduce inequalities and promote social justice. It draws on theoretical resources of intersectionality and hauntology to illuminate the ways in which social psychological research frequently makes black people visible in ways that exclude them from normative constructions. The final main part of the paper presents an analysis of an interview with the racing driver Lewis Hamilton to illustrate possible ways of humanizing racialization by giving recognition to the multiplicity and historical location of racialized positioning. The paper argues that, while social psychology has made vital contributions to the understanding of group processes and of racisms, there remains a need to humanize racialization by conducting holistic analyses of black people's (and others') intersectional identities.
由 COVID-19、乔治·弗洛伊德遇刺和黑人的命也是命运动复兴共同引发的意外转变，突显了社会心理学理解的重要性，以及需要对社会理论进行重大变革。本文聚焦于种族化问题。它探讨了社会心理学需要解决的问题，以减少不平等，促进社会正义。本文借鉴了交叉性和幽灵学的理论资源，阐明了社会心理学研究常常以排斥他们的方式将黑人可见的方式，将他们从规范构建中排除出去。本文的最后一个主要部分分析了对赛车手刘易斯·汉密尔顿的采访，以说明通过承认种族化定位的多样性和历史背景，将种族化人性化的可能途径。本文认为，尽管社会心理学对群体过程和种族主义的理解做出了至关重要的贡献，但仍有必要通过对黑人（和其他人）的交叉身份进行整体分析来使种族化人性化。
