Historical Generational Trauma article focusing on Native Americans
“This page explores how trauma passes down from generation to generation, why it is so difficult to break free from destructive family patterns, and how people can embrace their stories in order to find healing.“
I found this to be very interesting and useful information on how the destructie behaviors that marginalized communities can display have a root and a cause that can be inherited from the trauma of the parents, grandparents and ancestors.
This is not difficult to follow, since we know that abused children often grow up to be abusers. Likewise, oppressed people can result in poor choices in their children.
