War’s Long Shadow: Generational Grief and Narrative Justice

A Community Gathering with Jungwon Kim and Linda Thai

Join mental health clinician Linda Thai and writer Jungwon Kim for an in-depth conversation on intergenerational trauma, historical grief, and healing in community. Together, they explore psychological, spiritual, and communal reverberations of historical violence, framed within the context of U.S. wars in Korea and Vietnam, yet deeply relevant to other conflicts, past and present. They share their experiences and observations of the complex dynamics of remembering and forgetting—and how they play out across families and communities fragmented by political and militarized violence. Further, they explore modes of restoration that are often overlooked by Western therapeutic approaches: somatic and communal transmutation, cultural ritual, and narrative justice. The pathways they share honor the deep connections between personal, historical, and communal dimensions of trauma.

 A vital conversation for anyone seeking to understand how the profound wisdom held within cultural memory can contribute to intergenerational healing.
