The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) scale gives a foundation towards understanding the experience of trauma for children. Clinicians & researchers since 1998 have been using this scale, and allows us to be more trauma-informed. More at Berkeley CHUM: https://t.co/5XJB3MaFoQ

June 19th commemorates #Juneteenth. For generations, Black communities have celebrated Juneteenth as a powerful expression of freedom, survival, and #CulturalPride.
It calls for us to move toward #policies, practices, and relationships that actively dismantle #SystemicRacism.

The root of protest can be thought of as a response to collective trauma and systemic rejection. Considering this, what is the psychological toll of years of protest, its politics, and the militarized response to it? Read more here: https://t.co/k54UDZfk0E

The anti-immigrant rhetoric used by politicians only fuels hate and fear. Dehumanizing language takes away dignity, which is unacceptable. #ImmigrationRights #HumanCenteredLanguage

On June 28, 1969, Queer patrons at the Stonewall Inn resisted a violent police raid, sparking days of protest and fueling the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement. Led by trans women of color, it was an uprising against oppression. #StonewallWasARiot #PrideMonth #LGBTQHistory

@JohnsHopkinsSPH Great read!

Pride is both celebration and call to action. From Stonewall to today, LGBTQIA+ history is rooted in courage + resistance. Honoring that legacy means practicing cultural humility + building systems rooted in equity, inclusion, and justice. 🌈 #PrideMonth #EquityInPractice

As ICE increases raids and arrests in our neighborhoods, let’s defend our families and neighbors. Everyone has rights, including the right to remain silent, regardless of immigration status. #PowerNotPanic #KeepFamiliesTogether #ICEoutofCA

In his new Forefront article, @ProfessorJerel from @UCBerkley argues that focusing on the practical aspects of public health can help us depoliticize the rural opioid epidemic and queer people’s place in it. https://t.co/RTWvN3MHOp

This unattributed "altered" painting of the famous "Girl With A Pearl Earring" artwork, the original being created by Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer, tells a few intriguing stories. One, in consideration of the powerful idea of cultural humility, speaks to the #evolution of ideas and customs over generations, and the frictions that are always absorbed by the present-day society (i.e., us) along the way. While this #subversion of Vermeer’s' piece is comical for most of us (given the subject here was real and born in the 1600s), the alteration raises questions about changing norms and values and the inevitable tensions this produces. *Every* generation is critical of the proceeding generation - for not being wise enough, not being moral enough, not being tough enough, etc. Things we say like… "we had better music..." "we didn't wear our hair that long..."… "we worked harder..." In short, the past is always naturally critical of and in opposition to the present. Classic literature and oral histories show that people born in the 1800s heard these critiques from their elders, people born in the 1700s from their elders, and people born in Vermeer’s’ day from their elders, and so on. And most adults living today can likely recall criticisms in these veins from their elders when they were teens or young adults. This tendency to harp on the shortcomings and foibles of "the new thing" can be reduced to the nostalgic logic that the present can never be as good as the past, a kind of reverse F.O.M.O. (Fear of Missing Out).
