AJ is a dumb ass who ignores critical fact based, peer reviewed study of the psychological effects of racism to post up the most idiotic bile ever assembled.
Racism as Trauma: Clinical Perspectives from Social Work and Psychology
Last Friday, February 26, 800 people filled the Laguna Honda Hospital & Rehabilitation Center in the beautiful Twin Peaks area of San Francisco. They were there for a Black History Month event coordinated by the San Francisco Health Network. The event featured presentations from two outstanding clinicians: Dr. Joy DeGruy, researcher, educator, and author of
Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome: America’s Legacy of Enduring Injury and Healing; and Dr. Ken Hardy, professor at Drexel University College of Nursing and Health Professions, and director of the Eikenberg Institute for Relationships in New York City.
The full conference title was:
Racial Trauma: Healing Ourselves, Our Clients, & Our Communities: Addressing the aftermath of historical trauma and today’s societal need for racial humility
Dr. DeGruy framed the day’s conversation when she drew a compelling correlation between the DSM V (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) criteria for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and the experiences that have defined life for African Americans in the US for 400 years, from enslavement through today’s epidemic of disproportionate state violence and incarceration plaguing the African American community.
With this correlation, Dr. DeGruy made a strong, clear argument for why race and racism need careful consideration by ACEs communities as we attempt to address and remediate trauma. Effective strategies for screening for adverse childhood experiences, as well as strategies for building resilience, will need to account for how racism traumatizes communities. And these strategies will necessarily need to adapt to the unique ways different communities experience racism.

Dear, Author and
Violence Researcher Dr. Joy DeGruy.
Watching every minute of your one hour-twenty-one minute London lecture posted on Youtube opened my eyes to horrors I was not aware of. Cruel, unjust, sometimes inhuman behaviors occurring during the evolution of our imperfect species. I'm sure we're both happy to witness our species evolving a bit further, though still requiring substantial room for improvement.
More importantly watching your London lecture I learned how 'Cognitive Dissonance' affects young children, much like American recording artists and
'Childhood Trauma' (#ACEs) victims Kendrick Lamar and Tupac Shakur who rap or write about experiencing childhood and adult depression, as well as experiencing suicidal thoughts.

Dr. DeGruy, I also watched some other vids you appear in. If I recall, the first was with Gil Noble, a soft spoken, respected NY news media figure I grew up watching and admiring.
Another vid featured you and a buddy with blond hair sitting at a kitchen counter cackling, giggling and speaking about being non-judgmental. Frankly, to me, this broadcast suggested you embrace PRO BLACK minded thoughts.
So with that in mind Dr. DeGruy, I would like to Keep it Real by respectfully asking your theory explaining why during the 60-70s Mr. Stevie Wonder, as well as virtually all of his musically gifted peers were adoring, praising, wooing, lamenting, loving and respecting women.
Yet beginning in the 1980s Mr. Shawn Carter and his American urban-TRUTH-teller peers loudly, as well as HATEFULLY inform our entire world that black or American girls, women and MOTHERS of African descent should be viewed as less than human creatures and hoes.
One last question, Dr. DeGruy, conveyed in the following image:
Doctor, I look forward to learning your theory about this disturbing, apparent HEALTH and social related phenomenon.
If you do not have a theory, respectfully, this conversation is over before it begins..
