A pair of social workers and a psychologist "are writing a book about what they call 'post-traumatic slavery disorder'--a derivative of post-traumatic stress disorder," the Boston Globe reports. "They are holding workshops to propose to fellow professionals that drug abuse, broken families, crime, and low educational attainment in segments of the black community can be directly linked to the trauma of slavery, and that 'black people as a whole are suffering from PTSD.' "

Reader Mark Schulze comments: "Post-traumatic potato disorder--that's what I'm going to claim about my Irish heritage if this one goes anywhere. I go into convulsions whenever I hear someone refer to a police van as a paddy wagon!"
