A majority of Americans were stressed before Election Day, and now post-election, emotions are still running high for many across the country. Experts say, Americans with varying political views are dealing with post political trauma in the wake of the election results, from pride and optimism to disappointment, frustration and even fear. Our series, “Aging While Black: Post Political Trauma” assembles a panel for thoughtful and open-ended questions to ask Black gay professional men about their experiences dealing
with post-political trauma following the 2024 election and the presidency of Donald J. Trump. Our candid conversation aims to explore their emotional, social, and professional responses designed to foster open dialogue, promote
reflection, and create a space for vulnerability and connection.
