The Association of Black Psychologists (ABPsi) is a professional association of African American psychologists founded in 1968 in San Francisco, with regional chapters throughout the United States. It publishes the ''Journal of Black Psychology''. Its main offices are in Washington, D.C. ==Beginnings==
The ABPsi was formed in the wake of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King and the rise of Black Nationalism of that era.〔The History of the Association of Black Psychologists, pg.1〕 The ABPsi intended to create a psychology of the black experience focused on improving the circumstances of black people. The founding psychologists believed that a psychology created mostly by white middle-class men could not explain the situation of people of African descent, and moved to incorporate African philosophy and cultural experience into the creation of a new understanding of black psychology.〔The History of the Association of Black Psychologists, pg.13〕 The founders actively chose to remain independent of the American Psychological Association, decrying that body's complicit role in perpetuating white racism in society. Instead, the ABPsi took a more active stance, seeking “to develop a nationwide structure for pooling their resources in meeting the challenge of racism and poverty”〔The History of the Association Black Psychologists, pg. 3〕 according to a statement released at their founding in 1968. ''Ebony Magazines publication of "Toward a Black Psychology" by Joseph White in 1970 was a landmark in setting the tone and direction of the emerging field of Black Psychology. By 1974 the ABPsi had established offices in Washington D.C., begun the Journal of Black Psychology, and fully separated from the APA. In 1976 Ruth King became the first female president of the ABPsi.〔http://www.feministvoices.com/presence-timeline/〕
