I challenge people Today that are hardcore in either direction: all right, take yourself out of or whatever and go back to that time. And so anyway, and I don't want to get too far down- before we started recording, we were talking about the fact that our country and the commerce in The Early Days of our country was completely based on slave labor.
Ever wondered how generational trauma impacts addiction and recovery in the Black community? In this episode of 'The Party Wreckers', hosts Matt Brown and Sam Davis sit down with Rick Hubbard, the Executive VP of Professional Relations at Origins Recovery Centers. Born in 1955, Rick brings a unique perspective shaped by the civil rights movement, his great-grandfather's journey from slavery to freedom, and the enduring impact on his family's battle with addiction.
Rick dives deep into how these historical experiences have influenced not just his own family but countless others in the Black community. He sheds light on the critical role of education and community resources in tackling addiction, emphasizing the importance of support from community groups, churches, and hospitals. But it's not all about the past. Rick also explores the intersection of spirituality and mental health in addiction recovery.
He candidly discusses the limitations he sees within the Black church when it comes to addressing these issues, urging listeners to engage in meaningful conversations and look at the bigger picture. This episode is packed with valuable insights that challenge you to think deeply about the complexities of addiction and recovery in the Black community. Whether you're directly affected by these issues or simply interested in understanding them better, Rick's perspective offers a rich, enlightening experience.
