“A common theme for heterosexual Black women participating in our healing circles and communal dialogue is that when they begin to unpack long-unaddressed trauma, they often find the root of that trauma in a man—either her father / father figure growing up or a man with whom she had a romantic relationship.

“An important part of the unlearning phase is to affirm your own truths. Seek deeper understanding and solace for your own healing by creating emotional distance from your parents' response, acknowledging your different perspectives, and offering them forgiveness and understanding that they truly may have done the best they could with the tools they had.”
