Memorials 911@19

Greetings Students:

9/11 traumatized a nation, and Covid-19 is another collective trauma. What do you think? How are you coping? Jack Saul, psychologist (Links to an external site.) who specializes in trauma response, speaks about his work and collective healing. 
 
In the clip here, the two therapists talk about rituals and how they help people cope with loss and the grief that comes with death and dying.  This nation is certainly mourning-- lots of loss. 

This is also the anniversary weekend of the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church (Links to an external site.) in Birmingham where 4 little girls were killed and many more children injured, Sept. 15, 1963. 

Sept. 13 is the anniversary of the Attica Uprising (Links to an external site.) in 1971 at the prison in NY State and the death of Tupac Shakur (Links to an external site.), Sept. 13, 1996 (Links to an external site.).
