Seeing graphic and violent content online can have deep psychological effects, especially for Black communities who often navigate trauma at multiple levels. A psychology professor highlights how exposure to such distressing imagery can increase anxiety, perpetuate feelings of helplessness, and impact our mental health overall. It’s crucial that we prioritize our wellbeing and create supportive environments for education and healing.
As we engage in these conversations, let’s not forget about the power of our stories. The Black Mother Wound series of books dives into the complexities of Black motherhood, exploring how trauma impacts our families and how we can begin to heal. You can grab your copies on Amazon or download a free chapter at theblackmotherwound.com.
Let’s nurture our mental health and uplift one another! 💖🖤
