CNN article on connection between ACEs and hate groups

Beth Grady MD 11/14/208:15 AM

After watching the excellent webinar Episode 6 of Cracked Up, the Evolving Conversation: Healing Trauma, I thought it was timely that CNN posted this piece:

Former White supremacist: This is how to tackle hate and bigotry

In the piece, the author makes the connection between his own ACEs and other trauma and his, as he puts it, addiction to hate.

Here is a link to the piece: https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/12...e-buckley/index.html

This is an excellent article about Chris' lived experience as a former white supremist and his journey to helping others escape "their addiction to hate". Again, trauma in childhood and in the military is at the root of this problem.

Thank you for posting!
