This paper describes a program of group therapy aimed at grappling with the core problem of most blacks in this society—loss of self-identification and lack of projection of a productively healthy existence. The black experience is seen as being akin to that of a control group in a laboratory experiment; implications of decontrolling a control group in the even more rigidly defined setting of a therapeutic community are explored.
