An autonomous organization of over 1,400 members, the Association of Black Psychologists (ABPsi) sees its mission and destiny as the liberation of the African Mind, empowerment of the African Character, and enlivenment and illumination of the African Spirit. The ABPsi was founded in San Francisco in 1968 by Black Psychologists from across the country who came together to actively address the serious problems facing Black Psychologists and the larger Black community. Guided by the principle of self-determination, these psychologists set about building an institution through which they could address the long neglected needs of Black professionals. Their goal was to have a positive impact upon the mental health of the national Black community by means of planning, programs, services, training and advocacy.

This Viewer's Guide was written by Daryl M. Rowe, Ph.D., Graduate School of Education and Psychology at Pepperdine University. Currently, Dr. Rowe is the National Chair of The African Psychology Institute, the training arm of the Association of Black Psychologists, where he has recently coordinated the development of a comprehensive curriculum for African Psychology.
