December JEDI Book Club – Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome @ Online Via Zoom

Tickets

Dec 19 @ 7:30 pm – 8:30 pm

For December we will be reading, Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome: America’s Legacy of Enduring Injury and Healing by Joy DeGruy  Here is a link to the Goodreads summary. “While African Americans managed to emerge from chattel slavery and the oppressive decades that followed with great strength and resiliency, they did not emerge unscathed. Slavery produced centuries of physical, psychological and spiritual injury. Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome: America’s Legacy of Enduring Injury and Healing lays the groundwork for understanding how the past has influenced the present, and opens up the discussion of how we can use the strengths we have gained to heal.”
