The reckoning : our nation's trauma and finding a way to heal / Mary L. Trump, Ph.D.

Our nation's trauma and finding a way to heal (portion title)

Trump, Mary L., (author).

Summary:

Donald Trump's niece, Mary L. Trump, examines America's national trauma, rooted in our history but dramatically exacerbated by the impact of current events and the Trump administration's corrupt and immoral policies. Our failure to acknowledge this trauma, let alone root it out, has allowed it to metastasize. Whether it manifests itself in rising levels of rage and hatred, or hopelessness and apathy, the stress of living in a country we no longer recognize has affected all of us. America is suffering from PTSD - a new leader alone cannot fix us.
