Resumo(s)
Racial oppression's institutional and interpersonal levels have had a substantial amount of empirical attention. Internalizedracial oppression (IRO) and the paths through which it negatively impacts mental health have received considerably lesserattention. In this cross‐sectional study with 226 self‐identified Black participants, we focus on colonial mentality, as a form ofIRO, and its association to depression. We argue that this detrimental effect happens because IRO limits the access to socialidentity resources, at both levels of the family system and wider society. The results revealed that the communication/problem‐solving dimension of family resilience mediated the effect of colonial mentality on depression. Support for the Black LivesMatter movement, a measure for collective action, was also a significant mediator but was, however, positively associated withdepression. This study is the first to quantitatively assess IRO's consequences on the mental health of Black individuals in apostcolonial European country. We discuss clinical implications
