You Can Heal Intergenerational Trauma | Dr. Thema Bryant | TEDxDelthorneWomen
“Come unto me all ye that are heavy laden and I’ll give you rest. This is a call, an invitation, a mandate, a manifesto, and a recipe for those of us who are surviving, struggling, and juggling the wounds of collective trauma."
So begins Dr. Thema Bryant's gorgeous and expansive spoken word piece that answers the essential question: How do we collectively heal and liberate ourselves?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxDelthorneWomen, where x = independently organized TED event.
With our theme, Collective Liberation, TEDxDelthorneWomen centers the voices that are reimagining a new and just society through a liberatory lens. Not just from a space of dismantling tired, old concepts and fighting oppressive views, but implanting fresh seeds rooted in new imaginings, curiosity and right relationship.
TEDxDelthorneWomen was produced, curated and hosted by Sonali Fiske, a Leadership mentor to BIPoC and the host of the radio talkshow, Revolutionary Voices.
Dr. Thema Bryant, psychologist, spoken word artist, and ordained elder, is the president-elect of the American Psychological Association, the leading scientific and professional organization representing psychology with more than 120,000 members.
Dr. Thema completed her doctorate in Clinical Psychology at Duke University and her post-doctoral training at Harvard Medical Center’s Victims of Violence Program. She is currently a tenured professor of psychology in the Graduate School of Education and Psychology at Pepperdine University, where she directs the Culture and Trauma Research Laboratory. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

"Don't run from truth, lean in to it"...👈🏾🙏🏽✊🏾
"Perhaps you never saw a model or an example of a marginalized person at rest..." That got me...the tears are flowing....

Just in my family level, I tried to speak out about childhood molestation (by my brother). My mother screamed at me to shut up. She told me I may be speaking the truth but I was being "unkind." This is why it was passed down generation after generation. SPEAK THE TRUTH

I hope you don't "shut up" and that you continue to speak your truth even when those around you don't want to hear it. ❤

As a white man who has suffered a lifetime of trauma, abuse, mental illness - I can relate to this. Please don’t exclude me from our collective healing for being a white man - I feel the pain of my pagan and Celtic ancestors also but often feel excluded and exhausted. Let’s unite in our humanity. Let’s remember we are all related. This talk was beautiful. I felt it deeply.

It's important to understand that the concept of intergenerational trauma is not presented as a universally accepted fact within the social justice or mental health fields.
FREE MY HEART
CULTURE AND SPIRITUALITY
HIDE YOUR FEELINGS AND KEEP GOING.
SELF CARE
I want this text in Spanish to share with my family 🥲
I AM NOT A MACHINE IM A HUMAN BEING.
RESISTANCE
Jesus Said..Avoid Pride..Lust..Greed..Anger and Worry. Forgive yesterday..it is past..live one day at a time..Trust God for tomorrow. The Father Knows what you need before you even ask and He will Give it to You? Trust Him! This is the Way to Peace and Health. 😊❤
I am rich. Gazellians.
I feel like her therapy sessions would do more harm than good by enabling trauma responses rather than healing them.
COMMUNITY CARE

GET LIBERATED BRAKE CHAINS.
Victim mentality, though.
Generational trauma is one of the most laughable things I have ever heard. My grandparents spent time on a German labor farm.during ww2. Should I be traumatized???? Lol lol lol. This victim mentality is what is holding people back
