Beschreibung

"Food has always been a political tool for the oppressor--and the Black body has always been one of its many battlegrounds. Licensed mental health therapist, somatic healer, and eating disorder specialist Alishia McCullough understands that for far too many Black women, racial trauma's seismic impact has disrupted their most essential relationship: the one they have with their bodies--and by extension, with their food. African Americans are disproportionately impacted by disordered eating behaviors, yet their experiences are frequently neglected by doctors and mental health experts. As a result, our most vulnerable communities are forced to navigate systems primed to dismiss their needs, leaving them without proper care, or often even the language they need to identify what's wrong. McCullough's groundbreaking work radically validates the lived experiences and generational traumas of BIPOC communities. As part of a steadily growing movement among clinicians to "decolonize therapy," her deeply affirming approach seeks to understand disordered eating patterns by examining the psychological wounds left by centuries of racism"--
