Book Study (free) The Politics of Trauma: Somatics, Healing and Social Justice by Staci. K. Haines

 
The Trauma Research Foundation invites you to The Politics of Trauma: Somatics, Healing and Social Justice by Staci K. Haines.
Register HERE.

The Politics of Trauma offers somatics with a social analysis. This book is for therapists and social activists who understand that trauma healing is not just for individuals—and that social change is not just for movement builders.

Just as health practitioners need to consider the societal factors underlying trauma, so too must activists understand the physical and mental impacts of trauma on their own lives and the lives of the people and communities with whom they organize. Trauma healing and social change are, at their best, interdependent.

Staci K. Haines, somatic innovator and cofounder of generative somatics, invites readers to look beyond individual experiences of body and mind to name and examine the social, political, and economic roots of trauma—including racism, environmental degradation, sexism, and poverty.
Haines helps readers identify, understand, and address these sources of trauma to help us bridge individual healing with social transformation.
