Historical Trauma and Modern Day Oppression: How Does This Relate to Eating Disorders? Presented by Nalgona Positivity Pride

This workshop by Nalgona Positivity Pride focuses on the unique multigenerational experiences women and queer people of color have had with colonialism and its connection to the development of eating disorders. 

It examines how historical trauma and systemic oppression impact the relationship that women and queer people of color have with their bodies, and explores ways that individuals may start to heal through decolonization.  

The workshop encourages critical reflection on current body positivity campaigns and eating disorder prevention and intervention strategies, and on how all can evolve to be more inclusive, accessible, and non­-oppressive.
