Applied behavior analysis has historically developed its empirical base in contexts that did not systematically examine race, culture, or structural factors as variables affecting behavior or treatment outcomes. This gap has consequences for clinical practice: BCBAs working with Black males — children, adolescents, and adults — bring a behavioral toolkit developed largely without explicit attention to the ways that systemic oppression, intergenerational trauma, and cultural identity shape the antecedent-behavior-consequence relationships they are observing and intervening upon.
