African Americans endured nearly 100 years of Jim Crow laws following slavery. Although literature regarding the effects of racism and discrimination is abundant, little attention has been given to the psychological and social effects of exposure to constant and legal racism that occurred during the Jim Crow era. This presentation will enhance counselors' understanding of racism and the transgenerational effects of historical trauma when working with elder African Americans.
