Join local author Ashley McGirt-Adair in the Main Library Cascade Room for a conversation around her new book, The Cost of Healing in Silence: Navigating Racial Trauma and the Call for Culturally Responsive Care. The book examines how racial trauma, historical harm, and systemic neglect have shaped mental health outcomes, particularly for Black communities, and what it means to pursue healing that is honest, culturally responsive, and rooted in community. The book explores Tacoma's history including the lasting impacts of segregation, displacement, and environmental inequities, and how these forces continue to shape the emotional and psychological lives of its residents. It also reflects on Tacoma as a place of endurance and fortitude, where families, including her own, found ways to persist, adapt, and survive despite structural barriers. The city’s story is woven into hers, and into the broader themes of the book addressing racial trauma in healthcare.
