Keepin’ It Real:
Healing from the Historical Trauma of Slavery and Segregation through Anti-Oppressive Practice

 

This presentation will NOT be recorded for playback review

This interactive training will explore the history of slavery and segregation. We will look at the effects of slavery and segregation in a modern context, especially as it relates to generational and racial trauma. There will be discussions on colorism, microaggressions, and the four tenets of oppression perpetrated by a society that continues to devalue, degrade, and marginalize African Americans and other minorities. Clinicians will be challenged to become a “voice” for clients, who are still misjudged, mistreated, and misunderstood. We will explore ways to help clients heal from the “pain of the past.”
