Rochelle: The Product of Generational Trauma

Rochelle: The Product of Generational Trauma... In the Episode "Everybody Hates Funerals" of the hit series Everybody Hates Chris (an American sitcom inspired by the real-life childhood of comedian Chris Rock. Set in Brooklyn, New York, during the 1980s, the series follows a young Chris as he navigates school, family life, friendships, bullying, and the challenges of growing up in a working-class neighborhood.) I explain what I believe is the reason for Rochelle's negative elements. This episode explores generational trauma, respectability politics, & unequal gender disparities in black households.
