Question: According to Cherrie Moraga and Merle Woo, how does intergenerational trauma work? Need Assignment Help? Group of answer choices Intergenerational trauma is caused by the internalization over generations of negative social systems that devalue the "dark" and "female." This may be healed by empathy, "entering into the life" of your mother through storytelling. Intergenerational trauma prioritizes the trauma of being "female" as the thread that connects mothers and daughters. It is through female bonding and storytelling between mother and daughter that gender oppression can be overcome. Intergenerational trauma is a process by which a traumatic event is experienced by one's mother and passed down to you. Because the child has not experienced trauma, there is a capacity for intergenerational trauma to be healed by the second generation.
