There needs to be more recognition of intergenerational/cultural trauma in addition to trauma that individuals experience. This isnt even an internet only phenomenon. Ive had white gentile therapists not understand it.

I’m very serious about tagging posts about traumatic events that happen in other cultures like slavery, the KKK, the Highland Clearances, boarding schools etc. because I know I have followers who are from cultures that experienced that and, since I dont know their own history with it, I can’t make assumptions that it doesnt affect them mentally. It’s really not that hard to tag. We all tag nonsense ship names that our phones cant recognize day in and day out after all.
