Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome with Dr. Joy Degruy 2020

[@ManickaThomas]

I would love to know how you are integrating the work of Dr. Joy into your Social Work practice!

I’m a black man, and I love both you ladies for having this discussion on behalf of our community.

[@jimmymags6516]

As fas as generational trauma , there's a few issues Dr Joy is glancing over . 1- Why haven't Jews exhibited PTSS ? The survivors of the concentration camps surely had PTSD . 2- I read most letters written by former slaves and even those slaves didn't show signs of PTSD in their writings , how could their descendants have PTSS ? 3- Wouldn't the descendants of Africans living in countries that never had slavery , be doing far better than African Americans ? And that's just not the case . 4- Wouldn't Africans be doing far better than AA's ?

[@nitawhite8459]

This the most fascinating theory I've read in some time and I am elated this theory is being presented by a Black woman.

[@jimmymags6516]

@School House I understand her theory is about PTSS , it's in her title and I mentioned PTSS in my comment , I was just comparing the two types of stress disorders . It's the same type of stress except no professionals are saying that PTSD is transferred to the next generation . There are too many examples of people who were subjugated for generations and showed no signs of generational stress, or transferred stress to their offspring at the end of their subjugation . The Irish are just one group that comes to mind . I can give you many more examples if you'd like but Im sure you can do the research yourself , especially if you're in a masters program . Teaching young AA's that they're perpetual victims and their oppressor is their adopted country is the worse form of abuse any intellectual can teach their students . Shame on Ms Degruy

[@jimmymags6516]

@@dr.lucillekeenanmspsyd9520 Are you familiar with PTSS theory ? I never said Jews weren't traumatized by WW2 . They were and they should have been . I'm sure the soldiers that fought in war and the men that freed the Jews were extremely traumatized as well . 10 years after the Holocaust the Jews were the wealthiest group of people in the US and Germany . But PTSS teaches black folks that they are still traumatized by the trauma experienced by their great , great ,great , great , great , great , great grandparents . If this was true , wouldn't the descendants of war veterans , potato famine , rape victims , Cambodian holocaust , Rwanda genocide , Armenian genocide , and all the people who lost a loved one to murder , illness car accident have generational PTSD ? PTSS is just another theory like CRT that allows blacks to go on as victims and avoid all personal responsibility for their current state .

@@jimmymags6516 KZbin keeps deleting my comment. It might be due to the length so I am separating this into multiple posts (1/5) First, no one is obligated to teach you anything given the numerous resources available through the internet and books. I am not sure that you asked these questions in good faith or to project the misinformation and ironic bitterness you have on a KZbin video promoting education and a sense of healing to a historically disenfranchised group of people. If you have viewed Dr. Joy Degruy's previous work, she has addressed many of the questions you have in great detail. "10 years after the Holocaust, the Jews were the wealthiest group of people in the US and Germany." I don't know how true this is, and I didn't find anything stating this. However, anti-semitism did decrease after WW2, and Jews were allowed to access more than they were able to in the past.

I’m just watching your video and I love what she said at 2:38 about skin color not being a thing until recently. Honestly as a Nigerian coming straight from Africa to America, there was great cultural shock for me. Getting to realise that my skin color, and even choosing to have my hair relaxed or natural and everything else I’m between was so significant and influenced how people perceived me. I never used to care about any of these back home. Nobody cared about your skin color or whatever you chose to do with your hair.

Enjoyed this. Absolutely agree there needs to be proper scholarship about the effects of systemic discrimination and racism. Would be interested to see how the epigenetics of African Americans differs from those of West Africans, how their DNA has altered in light of their experience in America, apart from Native American and European DNA heritage. Would love to learn more about how this trauma is transmitted - there is real evidence DNA altered in light of experience is transmitted to one's children. Look forward to finding out more.

[@ManickaThomas]

Dr. Joy does some work around epigenetics, but I know there is a lot more work to be done in this area. Every culture has some degree of trauma...ours has probably been the longest withstanding.

[@AlfonsdeWert]

I am a Dutchman, married to an African lady from Liberia, West Africa. I lived in Holland, South-America, the Caribbean, and Africa. But, I've never spent time in America. However, when listening to Dr. DeGruy, and when observing certain things in the countries that I had to honor to live in, I also wonder what types of trauma's colonization have caused Africans to suffer from. Can there be something like a "Post Traumatic Colonization Syndrome" among Africans because of the ways the Europeans conquered, suppressed, exploited, humiliated, and discriminated against them? And if so, what should we learn from it? And more important: what should we do about it? How can we heal such trauma and work toward a situation in which ultimately 'unity in diversity' can also be achieved between former colonizers and the Africans that [perhaps subconsciously] still suffer from such a Post Traumatic Colonization Syndrome? Would recognition, apologies, reparation, and changes in the socio-economic relationships between them be a beginning? What else can be done? The book "The looting machine" by Tom Burgis shows that colonization still hasn't ended and that many African nations are still not free, because big 'white' companies are still looting African nations like before and are taking their precious resources for next to nothing, while, for example, African children are literally working themselves to death in hand-dug mines while the stockholders of these big companies are still filling their bank accounts with millions. So, we still have to learn a lot from the past, and we have to repair a lot in the present and actually, we have to do a lot more in order to create a better and more beautiful future for all peoples on earth. To achieve what in my opinion is the only thing God wants from us: unity in diversity.

There are few or little black psychologist to treat fellow African Americans . White psychologist never acknowledge the racism a black patient has endured . I was often told I was too sensitive and take the racial disdain too serious . White people ! Never judge a person until you've been in his shoes . My parents were embedded with this " black self hatred " as well unfortunately . My sisters and I never were in serious trouble , without drug issues or unlawfulness . Yet if there was a problem , it was assumed we were the instigator or trouble maker . If we didn't follow directions this was a serious indictment of being dumb and ending up a failure for the rest of our lives . I see this behavior among many ( not all ) black parents or black people in general . God Bless you Dr. Joy DeGruy for bringing attention to this generational mental illness from slavery .

[@tippysgrammy3118]

My view (as a black mom/grandma) is that children are (should be) close to their parents in public to learn how to act in public. Not to be running around, disturbing folks whom they don't know. Because running around and being disruptive will cause them to be labeled negatively.

[@rwatson7064]

The notion that SW faculties, let alone medical, legal, engineering faculties, etc, etc, need to conduct psychological testing of students may not sit too well with human rights respecting organizations, as such testing has been used in the past (and present?) to perpetuate discrimination and is beyond problematic. I can see the motivation to protect one's imagined community, but there is also a requirement of SW'ers to work for the betterment of not only the client but also the environment and critically for the larger society and her approach seems mutually exclusive to that final goal and requirement of SW. SW'ers cannot simply focus on one group without considering the larger common good we are all connected to and I think this encompasses a critical flaw in her logic as a SW'er. Perhaps Dr.DeGruy might wish to consider bridging and connections-facilitation methods so we humanize one another, rather than the failure of perpetuating alienating silos which is precisely the approach that has brought us to this time of staggering inequity..

how about us white people, we suffer same thing but worse. at lest you guys can talk about it we whites have no one, what about us. wonder why we only talk about black salve why not talk about white salve that my people went through. The British government had realized as early as the 1640’s how beneficial white slave labor was to the profiting colonial plantations. Slavery was instituted as early as 1627 in the British West Indies. The Calendar of State Papers, Colonial Series of 1701 records 25000 slaves in Barbados in which 21700 were white slaves. thousands of whites endured the hardships of tobacco farming and lived and died in bondage in the New World. Following the cultivation in 1613 of an acceptable tobacco crop in Virginia, the need for labor accelerated. Slavery was viewed as the cheapest and most expedient way of providing the necessary work force. Due to harsh working conditions, beatings, starvation, and disease, survival rates for slaves rarely exceeded two years. Thus, the high level of demand was sustained by a continuous flow of white slaves from England, Ireland, and Scotland from 1618 to 1775, who were imported to serve America’s colonial masters. England essentially dumped its unwanted in the American colonies, where they were treated no better than livestock. Servants were regularly battered, whipped, and humiliated. Disease was rampant, food was in short supply, and working and living conditions were grim. War with local native Indian tribes was common. Severe punishment made escape unrealistic. shipping of more than 300,000 white Britons to the colonies. "In time, the English thought of a better way to use these women to increase their market share: The settlers began to breed Irish women and girls (many as young as 12) with African men to produce slaves with a distinct complexion. These new “mulatto” slaves brought a higher price than Irish white livestock and, likewise, enabled the settlers to save money rather than purchase new African slaves. "white slave wasnt worth much that they thought of them below black slave.i bet you guys dont know nothing about this that they dont teach this in school. why?
