Radical healing is the process of becoming whole again after experiencing trauma related to one’s identity, especially for people from oppressed racial or ethnic groups. It focuses on healing the deep wounds caused by historical injustices like racism and colonialism. This approach encourages both personal healing and collective actions to challenge the unfair conditions that led to the trauma, promoting dignity, respect, and social change."H. A. Neville, H. Y.
