@realcaseyrollins @_p @sim Oh one other thing i hear get thrown a lot is as such. Think this one was from a [[white]] journo:
"White people containerize, Black people Internalize"
That line always came off as BS to me, since control of emotion is dictated by discipline and conscious control.
Mainly think that because I remember a time as a kid where strong emotion could just let loose, as I simply had no comprehension on how to temper them.
As for traumatic events though, all people internalize. It just seems to be a matter of what kind of event.
