Current Time.

Mental health is not just the weight of individuals; it burdens entire nations. Hate, hostility, and resentment passed from generation to generation, fueled by culture, shaped by traditions, and reinforced by societal norms, are more than an educational problem. They are a national mental health crisis. To hate a group or culture without knowing a single individual from that group destroys not only the collective soul but also the mental well-being of individuals within those societies.

Carrying these emotions for generations while fueling the flames and keeping hatred alive cripples the mind and prevents healing. It creates a cycle of destruction that spirals further with every generation.

In the same way that experts have developed therapies for organizations, we need a new kind of expertise to heal nations. Beyond traditional therapy, groups must learn daily affirmations that let go of the past and focus on building their future. Imagine memorizing affirmations of constructive energy rather than destructive emotions. Imagine teaching nations how to move on. It is not just a question of how to do it; it is a question of when we will do it because we are running out of time and have to do something.

To fully understand the flow and connections between these articles, follow this order:

* Start with 600 Years of Rule Made the Ottomans Blind to Changes, the story that inspired Nathalie Martinek, PhD, to write her article. It sets the stage by exploring how the Ottoman Empire’s leadership and societal structures shaped the region.

* Next, read We All Came from Somewhere. It provides deeper insights into the history of displacement and its impact on different communities.

* Then, read The Revolt of the Invisible Children, where Nathalie Martinek PhD applies a psychological lens to the burdens carried by the Arab world, drawing parallels between historical neglect and its lasting impact on communities.

* Finally, dive into my response, The Legacy of Neglect and How History Shapes the Arab World Today, where I expand on her insights and discuss the historical and cultural influences shaping the Arab world today.

Each article builds on the last, offering a deeper understanding of history’s role in shaping societies and the possibilities for healing.

Liat

In this journey, I weave together episodes from my life with the rich tapestry of Israeli culture through music, food, arts, entrepreneurship, and more. I write over the weekends and evenings and publish these episodes as they unfold, almost like a live performance.

Each episode is part of a set focused on a specific topic, though sometimes I release standalone episodes. A set is released over several days to make it easier for you to read during your busy workday. If one episode catches your attention, make sure to read the entire set to get the whole picture. Although these episodes are released in sets, you can read the entire newsletter from the beginning, as it flows smoothly, like music to your ears - or, in this case, your eyes.

The Liat Show is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.
