Mental Health and Disasters

Since the attacks of September 11, 2001, disaster preparedness and response has developed into a discrete subspecialty in medicine, and the paramount health care initiative of the US Government. The mental health component of disaster response is a serious subject of study, as trauma is associated with a substantial and long-lasting psychologic burden, both on an individual and community level. The psychopathologies associated with disaster are also quite broad, varying from several different types of post-traumatic stress and anxiety disorders to acute variations of grief-associated depression. This book is the definitive reference on mental health and disasters, focused on the assessment and treatment of the full spectrum of psychopathologies associated with many different types of individual disasters. The logistics for utilizing pre-existing community-based mental health services, as well as the development of new programs, are covered in depth. Case studies and perspectives for improving care, incorporating lessons from Hurricane Katrina and 9/11, are included in detail.

Critics split on Kanye West’s confederate flag gear

Remember Confederate Flag Guy? You should: in the limited media coverage the Million Veteran March during the government shutdown, one man holding a confederate flag magically became “Tea Party protesters” and grabbed nearly all the attention. What, then, to make of rapper Kanye West and his newfound appropriation of the confederate flag?

West has featured the confederate flag on recent tour merchandise.

He’s been photographed draped in the flag.

Today, gossip site X17online.com published yet another photo of West sporting a custom jacket with the flag emblem. So what’s up? Is it true that he’s “reappropriating” the flag and making it his own, as he’s said in interviews? Sites like the Huffington Post have not been amused, writing:

Let’s hope Kanye is attempting to reappropriate the negative meaning behind the flag rather than outfitting thousands of clueless concert-goers in “racist” threads. We can just imagine all the white kids walking around in their “Yeezus” confederate flag shirts ready to refute any backlash with: “Yeezy taught me!”

What does Twitter have to say about it?

On Kanye making the confederate flag "his flag…."
