On May 22nd, MPR's North Star Journey Live will explore the topic of intergenerational trauma in the Black community with journalist and author Lee Hawkins Jr. at the 3M Auditorium at the Minnesota History Center in St Paul. Hawkins, who grew up in Maplewood, will sit down with MPR News host Angela Davis to talk about his new podcast What Happened in Alabama? (also produced by MPR via APM Studios) and his forthcoming book, “Nobody’s Slave: How Uncovering My Family’s History Set Me Free.” This event is free and open to the public. Please reserve your ticket and join me at the event.
Such a vital topic! Exploring intergenerational trauma is essential for healing and understanding. Hawkins' insights on this matter will surely illuminate paths forward. -What Happened in Alabama?- sounds impactful! 📚✨
