As we close out Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we speak with long-time friend and partner, Kandee Lewis, to discuss domestic violence in the Black community.
Some topics we discuss are:
DV in Black families (stats, rates) and the context of racism and systemic inequality that contribute to intimate partner violence
Impacts of COVID and surge in DV
Intergenerational violence and impacts of witnessing DV as a child.
How to interrupt generational violence
Connections between DV and Child Abuse
Strategies for identifying and preventing relationship violence in our children's relationships
