Many know the quote, “Those who do not know the past are doomed to repeat it,” but not many realize that the past can find ways of affecting us whether we know it or not, and this can manifest itself in different ways. Historical trauma is a shared trauma experienced by a racial, ethnic, or cultural group or community within society, and can have multigenerational impact. It’s the epitome of how we feel the effects of history everyday within our society. In this episode of Think Peace Podcast, our host Colette Rausch sits down with Dr. Corey Henderson to discuss how historical trauma works, why the study of historical trauma is so important, and the role that it plays in the modern context.
