Assertions that the social work profession is racist and has failed to fulfill its mission to advance racial justice are not new. Despite efforts to pursue racial justice as a profession, it appears very little progress has been made, resulting in renewed and more vigorous attention to examination of what it will take for social work to become truly antiracist. This paper presents the perspective of a black social work educator, who asserts that for the profession to become truly antiracist so that it dismantles racism, we must first deconstruct social work education. What we fail to achieve in practice is rooted in how we educate social workers. The paper identifies how social work education must be changed and reconceptualized in order to advance antiracist social work practice.

The coronavirus pandemic has disproportionately affected immigrant and refugee communities, along with community-based ethnic organizations (CBEOs) serving these communities. Our study explored the impact of COVID-19 on immigrant and refugee communities and the CBEOs serving them by conducting in-depth interviews with CBEO leaders (N = 7). Six salient themes emerged: heightened organizational strain; COVID-19’s exacerbation of social issues; loss of community wealth; barriers to COVID-19 information; immigration policies, vulnerability, and structural barriers; and a path to better opportunities.

ABSTRACT African-Canadians continue to bear the brunt of marginality and stereotyping in Canada even when various mitigating studies and programs have been initiated by the government at federal, state, and municipal levels. These stereotypes continue to affect them in informal settings and state institutions when seeking employment, housing or when in the streets, malls, schools, etc. While social justice advocates, social workers, and policy-makers focus on “Black-White” dynamics because other “racialized minorities” are also marginalized (though not equally) in Canada, it is important to note that “non-White” Canadians also contribute to the spread of historical stereotypes of African-Canadians within Canadian multiculturalism as noted in the emphasis of the city of Toronto’s mitigating strategies for “anti-Black racism.” Using social group position theory (SGPT) and asset-based model (ABCD), this paper argues that interrogating social group biases beyond “Black-White” binarism to encourage inter-group dialogs is important in making sure that different multicultural communities understand one another through favorable, activities-mediated, inter-group relations as opposed to having multicultural relations mediated by third parties, or not mediated at all. We also argue that African-Canadians should focus on internal strengths and only use external help to augment community initiatives to change the extant negative image.

In March of 2022, the Social Welfare Action Alliance (SWAA) held a meeting on Crafting Today’s Radical Social Work Manifesto. Participants were asked to prepare for the meeting by reading Social work and social justice: a manifesto for a new engaged practice from the Social Work Action Network (SWAN) in the UK (and now international) as well as the Dubrovnik Manifesto. SWAN Manifesto Dubrovnik Manifesto We were motivated to do this as conditions in our country continue to deteriorate – the poor get poorer; racism and white supremacy are alive and well; access to affordable and reliable healthcare are not in reach for many; public schools are underfunded; and the list goes on. SWAA wanted to reflect on the current situation as well as what we could and should do given this situation. As one of our SWAA colleagues often says – “We were never meant to help” (Mary Bricker-Jenkins). We have to fight back. We can no longer be content at being the buffer zone between the rich and powerful and the poor and oppressed. We are committed to building new systems that push back against exploitation and oppression of both workers and people they work with. We do not want to reinforce the status quo – we want to transform it. At our event we crowdsourced what it meant to be radical social workers and social welfare workers. This free verse poem is taken from the comments of the people who participated. A longer Manifesto is in the works. Facilitated by Rosemary A Barera, Joanne Hessmiller, and Barbara Kasper.

2022年3月，社会福利行动联盟（SWAA）举行了一次关于制定当今激进社会工作宣言的会议。与会者被要求阅读《社会工作与社会正义：英国社会工作行动网络（SWAN）的一份新的参与实践宣言》（现在是国际性的）以及《杜布罗夫尼克宣言》，为会议做准备。SWAN宣言杜布罗夫尼克宣言我们之所以这么做，是因为我们国家的情况不断恶化——穷人越来越穷；种族主义和白人至上主义依然存在；许多人无法获得负担得起和可靠的医疗保健；公立学校资金不足；SWAA希望反思当前的形势，以及在这种情况下我们可以做什么，应该做什么。正如我们SWAA的一位同事经常说的那样——“我们从来就不应该帮忙”（玛丽·布里克·詹金斯）。我们必须反击。我们不能再满足于成为富人和权贵、穷人和被压迫者之间的缓冲区。我们致力于建立新的制度，抵制对工人及其同事的剥削和压迫。我们不想强化现状，我们想改变现状。在我们的活动中，我们众包了激进社会工作者和社会福利工作者的意义。这首自由诗取自参与者的评论。一份更长的宣言正在酝酿之中。由Rosemary A Barera、Joanne Hesmiller和Barbara Kasper主持。欲知详情，请联系rosemaryabarbera@gmail.com

ABSTRACT This article presents a subset of findings of a qualitative study, conducted with 33 Chinese female migrant massage parlor workers who were defendants of the Human Trafficking Intervention Courts (HTIC) in New York City. Data were collected through individual and focus group sessions and were analyzed for themes and subthemes using the interpretative phenomenological analysis. Themes of negative experiences from their interactions with law enforcement and the HTIC system emerged in the study and contextualized their lives as im/migrants who work in the underground economy, especially in unregulated, lucrative jobs that potentially involve morally sanctioned types of labor. This article concludes with an outline of implications for human service professionals whose work might impact the lives of others whose lives are similarly impacted by the Human Trafficking Intervention Courts – or other carceral mechanisms designed to end prostitution/sex work.

ABSTRACT This manuscript explores the unique construction of community that young, low-income, women create, based on the embodied internal and external spaces they occupy as lone mothers. Issues related to diverse women’s representation, voice, and power, within these socially constructed communities are examined. Attention is paid to how young low-income mothers experience and actively create their own supportive community within both geographic and social boundaries, in active resistance to dominant and oppressive assumptions. To explore these concepts in-depth, results are presented from an ethnographic study that examined the community participation of eleven young, low-income, racially diverse single mothers living in a small U.S. Midwestern city. Findings focus on the multiple ways that women’s lives embodied the idea of community through the prism of motherhood, race, class, and geographic/physical space. The use of qualitative participatory mapping techniques is also emphasized to examine these physically and socially constructed boundaries. Implications are discussed for ways that social workers can best advocate for social justice by using an intersectional lens to locate and partner with the organic communities of mothering that these women created.

ABSTRACT Women face persistent disparities in healthcare quality, access to care, and treatment rates and outcomes, with women from marginalized identities facing greater difficulties. Little is known about providers’ understanding of these disparities, despite the vital role they play. This qualitative study explored interdisciplinary providers’ (psychologists and primary care physicians) perceptions of healthcare disparities and challenges across marginalized groups of women (women of color, women with disabilities, and women from low SES, elderly, and LGBTQ backgrounds). Providers frequently focused on individual patient barriers over systemic and relational barriers. Narratives varied by provider type and when discussing different groups of women. Continued provider training and health equity approaches are needed to combat healthcare disparities for diverse women.

ABSTRACT Despite being one of the smallest racial/ethnic groups in the State of Hawai‘i (~10–21%), Native Hawaiians have persistently and disparately comprised the largest racial/ethnic group in the state public treatment system (≥43%). One outcome of Hawaiʻi’s history as a colonial subject, is that social institutions of the State became characterized by the imposition of social control emphasizing the maintenance of punishment mediated through the dynamics of state-sanctioned coercion. At both the individual and community level, implications are drawn out to hypothesize that treatment avoidance or community-wide disengagement patterns of help-seeking, is a manifest expression of collective cultural resistance to what has long been regarded by Hawaiian communities as a “haole [foreign] system” of medicine. While cultural interventions imbued with cultural sensitivities remain relevant to improving treatment care, there is a false assumption embedded within the current treatment paradigm, projecting a doctrine of repeated and prolonged calls for cultural competence and cultural humility to correct the status quo of cultural deficiencies in the publicly funded treatment system. This article proposes an alternative theory, arguing that the source of the problem is the existence of a drug treatment superstructure itself, rooted in the historical reproduction of colonial persecution and continued subjugation of Native Hawaiian identity.
