    Residual Effects of Slavery: What Clinicians Need to Know
    Wilkins, Erica J.; Whiting, Jason B.; Watson, Marlene F.; Russon, Jody M.; Moncrief, Allena M. (Springer, 2013-03-01)
    Marriage and family therapists grapple with the intersection of societal influence and African American clients' presenting problems. Questions include: what impact has the historical trauma of slavery had on African Americans and what are the clinical implications of this trauma? This paper reviews the literature on the various residual effects of slavery (RES) within the African American community. A case vignette and a broad discussion of therapeutic techniques will be used to highlight the clinical implications of RES.
