    From the moment they're born, babies seek a loving parental attachment. When that connection is absent, it derails childhood development in ways that can last a lifetime. The annual health costs of illness related to child trauma for North America and Europe alone are 1.3 trillion dollars. Child trauma is much more widespread than previously thought and passes from one generation to the next. But that's not the end of the story—there is overwhelming evidence that this intergenerational transmission can be disrupted. So why isn't the eradication of childhood trauma a tier-one public priority, like defense or growth? 
     
     
     
    In Trauma Proof, Benjamin Perks argues that it must be, and that we can tackle it as a public health problem like COVID-19, by 1) making sure everyone is aware of the risk; 2) preventing transmission; and 3) opening pathways to healing. Perks shows we have the tools to make these three things happen, and the evidence to show they work. Psychology, neuroscience, and medicine have made huge leaps in the past twenty-five years. We now know what causes Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), how to reduce them, and how to address them. For the first time in history, we know child mistreatment is not inevitable. Trauma Proof is a rallying call to address child trauma as the public health crisis it is—because we can do better for kids, and we should.

    It's past time for us to break down obstacles to success and education for people of color, speak out against global social injustices, and stop hiding behind the cliché, "I'm white, I can't speak out on the race." In our thoughts, acts, and words, we must be deliberately anti-racist. Someone who claims to be anti-racist may not laugh at a racist joke or remain silent when they hear a racist remark, but this does not make them anti-racist. One of the numerous issues with racism is that it manifests itself in various ways. It has institutional and structural roots, is based on colonial history, and has been passed down through the generations like an unsightly relic. It's outspoken, red-faced, and enraged, willing to assault you on the street. In the absence of representation, in the 'banter' and 'harmless' comments, in the twitching fingers of white people who can't stop themselves from stroking Black people's hair. Racism is multi-faceted and nuanced, and many people aren't even aware that they have racist attitudes. In this book, you will read about critical race theory and racism as a problem of not being white, rejecting responsibility, and seldom admitting white privilege
