Understanding intergenerational trauma from slavery and utilizing cultural responsive approaches like Emotional Emancipation Circles for community healing.
Intergenerational trauma refers to the passing down of past harms through trauma stories, reactivity to stressors, and impacts of minority stress, leading to trauma symptoms in caregivers modeled for younger individuals within a family unit. This cycle continues through generations, affecting families and communities.
Addressing the trauma of slavery as a community requires cultural responsive approaches such as Emotional Emancipation Circles (EECs) that focus on healing from historical trauma. Encouraging self-care, social support, and sharing of experiences can help in creating a path toward community-based healing and promoting social change.
