Trauma and the Law
Trauma and the law: a conversation about how our legal system is prone to reinforce trauma dynamics but can learn to do better. Our guests have worked in several areas that will be a focus of this conversation: adultification bias toward girls of color in society in general and the courts in particular; disproportionate rates of in-school discipline and school pushout experienced by girls of color; and the criminalization of trauma, particularly with respect to women who fight back against their abusers.
