Description
Let us unpack the economic windfall of black trauma. This webinar will explore the money made on the suffering of Black people. From 1619 to yesterday, the US has and continues to profit off the explicit and implicit selling of Black Trauma. The pain and suffering from enslavement to “The Hate You Give” may have changed, but one thing remains the same…Profit follows. This webinar will discuss why this trope persists in US culture and how people can begin to push back against it.
