A quote from my professor addressing the lack of personhood assigned to "heroes" or "martyrs" (for example) as a result of seeing them as "more than" or "greater than" others.
We've been discussing complex personhood, "the idea that people are shaped by multiple histories, identities, and contradictions."

Desensitization, conditioning, and teaching denial defense mechanisms are necessary for the soldier who kills the enemy. Who else in society are men desensitized towards the human experience of, conditioned to enact violence upon, and provided with myriad denial and defense mechanisms to escape understanding the harm they inflict?

⭐have to do a brain dump for my own sanity lol. i work in research which often requires literature reviews. my team is currently conducting a lit review on "healing-centered engagement" which is somewhat synonymous with "trauma-informed care" depending on the setting.
healing-centered focuses more on the fact that healing from trauma is a political process. it was a term coined by a professor named shawn ginwright. he believed that we should switch to healing-centered engagement rather than trauma-informed care. he believes that trauma informed, focuses too much on trauma and doesn't necessarily allow a person to heal.
the topic is very interesting and definitely has made me think a lot about the way we approach trauma and how we can heal from it. i figured i'd share this topic in case there's anyone that likes topics like this! (I have been working on this review for like 2 months therefore I needed to just dump this somewhere lol)

✉️The scent of cardboard drapes over me like a warm blanket. The sun shines through grand windows, highlighting golden each caramel board of smooth waxed wood-- is it oak?
A cacophony of keyboard clicks and packing tape scratches fills the air. "Where are you shipping to?" "Priority first-class?" "Please fill out this brief survey... Next!"
The room is simple but the essence is untouchable.
There is one of these in almost every town, a smiling face behind each counter. If you are here then you are connected to the rest of the world.
