Hi, Laura. In her London lecture, violence researcher and author Dr. Joy DeGruy offers her audience a roller coaster ride of emotions while sharing her thoughts and opinions about the research she has done on the topic of slavery and racism.
Dr. Joy DeGruy Addresses Black Depression, Violence; and Healing?
Dr. Degruy opened my eyes to horrors and human atrocities I was not aware of causing me to become sad for the human race.
After experiencing the roller coaster ride of emotions learning about the human ignorance of our past, thankfully I realized the human species learns as we evolve to becoming a more educated, peaceful people willing to correct the injustice, inequality and human ignorance of our past.
However, MOST IMPORTANTLY Dr. DeGruy opened my eyes to what Cognitive Dissonance is and how it affects our human minds.
Learning about Cognitive Dissonance I realized that in today's world there is a significant population of children much like Grammy winner and victim of Childhood Abuse and Neglect Kendrick Lamar whose young minds were traumatized by CD.
In paragraph eight of this interview Kendrick candidly reveals the source of his childhood and adult depression, the roots of Poverty, aka Child Abuse and his sadness over being deprived of a safe, fairly happy Average Joe American kid childhood by his violent felony embracing family and community members.

I wonder how little Kendrick and his classmates reacted when their elementary school teacher introduced the DARE presenter and they learned about the real dangers of drugs and how they harm people, including their parents? *Cognitive Dissonance*
Laura, all Americans should be taught the TRUTH about our ignorant past that for centuries OPPRESSED and DEHUMANIZED a population of peaceful, caring, loving people, depriving them of experiencing a safe, fairly or extremely happy life.
Laura, by the same token Americans of all ages should be made aware that a more current form of HUMAN OPPRESSION has for more than two generations deprived countless numbers of children like Kendrick, his siblings, numerous cousins, neighborhood friends and classmates from experiencing a fairly happy "Average Joe and Josie" American kid childhood with SAFE STREETS to travel and play on.
Should The Black Lives Matter Movement Recognize Oppressive, Criminally Negligent Maternal Caregivers?
Witnessing A Severely Depressed Teen, Reveal He Is A Victim of Child Abuse/Neglect
Laura, your students and all American students have the power to change society's attitude and our laws so this HUMAN OPPRESSION of our Nation's most precious resource becomes another ignorance we addressed and corrected.
Peace.

Robert K. Ross, MD, President and CEO of The California Endowment, addressed inmates at Ironwood State Prison offering a compelling overview of the role that exposure to childhood trauma plays in the lives of *emotionally troubled* and chronically ill American teens and adults.
At 2:12:25 in this documentary about Mafia hitman and victim of Early Childhood Trauma/Abuse, Richard "The Iceman" Kuklinski, Dr. Park Dietz explains why young Richard most likely developed into a emotionally disturbed, paranoid, cruel, heartless teen and man who did not give a frig about anyone else, including his wife and kids.
