Whats up, its Dante with the Tselogz crew. I love long walks on the beach and hate mean people, lol jk. But on a more serious note I am Dante, I am shaped by what life has thrown at me to make me who I am today. That ranges to my hobbies; bowling, cars, art, music, etc. The next thing that made me, me is Daly City. A city filled with pinox yet robbed of my culture. I will elaborate on it. Lastly I grew appreciation of Polynesian which also shaped me and my personality due to my participation in the culture by performing Tahitian. Generational trauma is a underrated haunting word. It is trauma that is started in a early generation, build up of stress and bad habits that get passed on for generations until it is addressed widely and resolved. But for many races it is just a whispered thought hidden from the public to avoid ridicule to most. until that one brave voice can spark a movement. The picture below mostly resembles my idea of generational trauma except the guy inside of the cell is a ghost of our ancestors. A popular example is Parents not wanting to teach there kids the native language because "you will be made fun of and no one rich will marry you". It is important to have people learn about generational trauma because we as a race must be able to stop fighting over small things and talk as mature adults then to end up in with a bloody outcome. We must be able to learn from our mistakes and have proper ideas of each other as a race. To be able to learn and adapt so we don't have to change who we are to find our better self's. I remember being told one thing America is missing is tradition that every where else follows. But we allow generational trauma to continue and grow to allow us to be oppressed unknowingly as a race.
