ConverZations That Matter hosted by Belvie Rooks

This series features ground-breaking dialogues with leading scholars, psychotherapists and shamanic practitioners dealing with the residual effects of historical trauma on Native and African American communities and other under-served communities. The series will explore current clinical findings and scientific research and raise questions such as:

• What is intergenerational trauma?
• How does it manifest in particular groups?
• How do historic systems of oppression impact modern health?
• Is trans-generational trauma one of the causative factors in the alteration of gene expression?
• What are some of the healing modalities and practices from indigenous and Western traditions?
