Collateral Damage

The Impact of Historical and Collective Trauma on BIPOC Populations

So often, we have issues within our families or couple relationships that feel as if they are beyond us. Where are they coming from? The issues may be linked to collective trauma. The ways we show up in Black/Indigenous/People of Color (BIPOC) communities often reflect the ways we have been treated by our oppressors historically. Collective Trauma theories help us understand how things that happened generations ago could be affecting our ability to love and be loved well. So what are you gonna do about it? Nothing... until you become aware of the impact, you can't go about healing and growing. Join me and Linnea Willis, LCPC, as we discuss collective trauma's impact on BIPOC communities.
