  • Summary

  • Dr. Carlian Dawson describes the impact of trauma and how it affects our ability to self regulate and process information.  Her experience as a principal and educator led her to study trauma and to educate others on the harm that is being caused by the deluge of trauma and the overload of stress.  Racism has shown itself to be an ever present trauma that settles like dust every time we clean it up.  While we continue to fight, we need to make sure we utilize the protective factors to mitigate the harms of trauma.   It takes courage to operate in the world at alert or alarm because of past traumas.  And it takes courage to use knowledge to move from potential power to actual power.
