The 1960s was a consequential decade for race relations in the United States. At mid-decade, it seemed that the long struggle to achieve the goal of racial integration would soon be achieved. Congress enacted a series of federal civil rights laws that ended de jure racial segregation and promised to achieve the major goals of the “second reconstruction” – the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1968 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Yet less than a week after the signing of the Voting Rights Act, a riot broke out in South Los Angeles neighborhood of Watts, following the arrest of a 21-year-old African American driver, Marquette Frye, for suspected drunk driving. Like the Harlem Riots of 1964, which followed the police shooting of 15-year-old Jerome Powell, the Watts Riots differed from many earlier “race riots.” While “race-related collective violence is a recurrent, periodic theme in American history,” riots in the first half of the 20 century “were characterized by violent interracial clashes between blacks and whites, usually initiated by whites” while the disorders of the 1960s “featured clashes between blacks and law enforcement officials” (Lipsky & Olson, 1977, p. 37). Many argued that the riot, now called by some an uprising, reflected frustration at the continuing challenges of police brutality and segregation during a period of superficial progress. Years later, Frye, who had resisted arrest, told a reporter, “All I knew that day is that I was tired of being treated bad by a policeman” (Szymanski, 1990, para. 15). Immediately after the riot, the Institute of Government and Public Affairs at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) initiated the Los Angeles Riot Study (LARS). The study, funded by a grant from the Office of Economic Opportunity, was staffed by faculty members from a variety of social science disciplines. Nathan E. Cohen, a national social work leader who had joined the faculty of the UCLA School of Social Welfare in 1964, served as study coordinator. The Institute of Government and Public Affairs issued a preliminary report in 1967; the final report was issued five years after the riot (N. Cohen, 1970), after more than 300 other American cities had experienced serious riots (Lipsky & Olson, 1977, p. 10).
20世纪60年代是美国种族关系的重要十年。在十年中期,为实现种族融合的目标而进行的长期斗争似乎很快就会实现。国会颁布了一系列联邦民权法律,结束了法律上的种族隔离,并承诺实现“第二次重建”的主要目标——1964年和1968年的《民权法案》和1965年的《投票权法案》。然而,在《选举权法案》签署后不到一周,洛杉矶南部瓦茨社区爆发了一场骚乱,起因是21岁的非裔美国司机马奎特·弗莱(Marquette Frye)涉嫌酒后驾车被捕。就像1964年警察枪杀15岁少年杰罗姆·鲍威尔(Jerome Powell)之后发生的哈莱姆骚乱(Harlem Riots)一样,瓦茨骚乱与许多早期的“种族骚乱”不同。虽然“与种族有关的集体暴力是美国历史上反复出现的周期性主题,”20世纪上半叶的骚乱“以黑人和白人之间的种族间暴力冲突为特征,通常由白人发起”,而20世纪60年代的骚乱“以黑人和执法官员之间的冲突为特征”(Lipsky & Olson, 1977,第37页)。许多人认为,这场被一些人称为起义的骚乱,反映了在表面上取得进步的时期,人们对警察暴行和种族隔离的持续挑战感到沮丧。多年后,拒捕的弗莱对记者说:“那天我所知道的就是我厌倦了被警察粗暴对待”(Szymanski, 1990,第18段)。15)。暴乱发生后,加州大学洛杉矶分校(UCLA)政府与公共事务研究所立即发起了洛杉矶暴乱研究(LARS)。这项研究由经济机会办公室(Office of Economic Opportunity)拨款资助,研究人员来自不同的社会科学学科。1964年加入加州大学洛杉矶分校社会福利学院的全国社会工作领袖内森·e·科恩(Nathan E. Cohen)担任研究协调员。政府和公共事务研究所于1967年发表了一份初步报告;最终报告是在暴乱发生五年后发布的(N. Cohen, 1970),而在此之前,美国已有300多个城市经历了严重的暴乱(Lipsky & Olson, 1977, p. 10)。

ABSTRACT As new forms of data proliferate, data are increasingly used as a tool to determine access to resources, levels of sanction, and vulnerability to surveillance. Although the use of data to implement systematically biased policy is not new, the contemporary primacy of data across core institutions imposes disproportionate harms on already marginalized communities. Activist-proposed conceptual frameworks informed by the notion of data justice provide a basis to operationalize human rights in an evolving technoculture. This article urges social workers to recognize new data driven forms of inequality across individual, organizational, and community levels of practice, offering concrete examples of data harms and of just data practices that embody transparency, accountability, nondiscrimination, dignity, and participation.

ABSTRACT Social media platforms are essential tools for contributing to feminist social movement building. There has been limited research theorizing how domestic and sexual violence (DV/SA) organizations use social media in their work with youth. Using thematic content analysis, this study interviews DV/SA (n = 35) staff to explore the role of social media in organizational settings. Results indicate that social media is used to advance organizational functionality including publicizing services, fundraising, and youth engagement. There is limited use of movement-oriented hashtags and numerous barriers to social media optimization. This work addresses strategies for expanding social media usage in DV/SA organizations.

ABSTRACT A rapid emergent media scan, describing 1) how mutual aid emerged as a response to COVID-19 and 2) how digital organizing was used for mutual aid, was conducted using a media bias framework to select media outlets, standardized search terms to identify relevant content, and content analysis to describe themes. A variety of digital tools (e.g., social media, crowdsourcing, video conferencing) were used to coordinate people/resources, raise funds, create connections, and educate others. Findings encourage digital organizing to meet tangible and intangible needs when formal systems fail, while carefully avoiding reifying inequities based on differential access to technology.

ABSTRACT The Trump administration’s immigration policies, over the course of four years, repeatedly conflicted with social work ethical principles, resulting in family separation and pervasive fear in immigrant communities throughout the US. The ethical principles of the social work profession are reflected in social work education competencies, including engaging in policy practice to advance justice. Using immigration policies as context, this paper provides details of a classroom activity that teaches social work students how to use Twitter to engage in advocacy and policy practice. Guided by experiential learning theory, the classroom activity can inform future pedagogical advancements in social work education.

The articles in this special issue illustrate how digital technologies, including social media, have impacted the ways individuals, groups, and communities come together to advocate and effect social change. Individually, these articles showcase key areas where social work scholarship has elevated the potential of digital technologies to spearhead substantive structural, social, and organizational change. Collectively, they offer a gentle nudge for our profession to take a more proactive role in integrating digital technologies in meaningful ways and advocating for digital justice. The social work profession is at a critical crossroads where we can take a proactive role in influencing the ethical use of digital technologies to benefit social good and advance social change, rather than be reactive to the whims of technology companies and developers that thus far, have dictated the rules of digital engagement and participation.

Since the 1970s, neighborhoods have adopted various forms of digital technology to encourage community organizing and engagement, particularly through participatory platforms that allow residents to both consume and produce locally relevant information. With the growing popularity of digital and social applications, interest has grown in using digital technology to tackle the challenges facing local communities. Nationwide platforms such as the social networking site Nextdoor or the local news site EveryBlock have drawn considerable attention from the mass media and even local governments as platforms to communicate with and engage citizens. Digital technologies have also been utilized to increase civic engagement (Chen et al., 2012), and mobilize people to solve local issues (Farnham et al., 2015). Digital and social technologies can also foster community engagement, including increasing social capital and connections (Hampton & Wellman, 2003; Kavanaugh & Patterson, 2001). However, these positive outcomes have less frequently benefitted communities of color, particularly young people. Neighborhood mobile apps have sometimes caused harm through racial profiling. Residents in marginalized communities are also impacted by the digital divide (Nielson, 2006) and low-income youth face civic opportunity gaps (Conner & Slattery, 2014). The use of digital technology has also risen in social work, including websites, cell phones, and virtual reality programs designed to understand social problems and develop interventions (Chan & Holosko, 2016). The use of digital technology in assessment and intervention in direct social work practice has led to more targeted services, provided an opportunity for immediate feedback, and allowed social workers to serve individuals who were not previously able to access services (Bender et al., 2014; Berzin et al., 2015; Ramsey & Montgomery, 2014). Despite the promise of using digital technology to improve social work practice, there has been less emphasis on designing mobile and online technology for community social work interventions, particularly engaging youth (Chan & Holosko, 2016). In response, faculty,
自20世纪70年代以来,社区采用了各种形式的数字技术来鼓励社区组织和参与,特别是通过参与式平台,允许居民消费和制作与当地相关的信息。随着数字和社交应用程序的日益普及,人们对使用数字技术来应对当地社区面临的挑战越来越感兴趣。社交网站Nextdoor或当地新闻网站EveryBlock等全国性平台作为与公民沟通和互动的平台,引起了大众媒体甚至地方政府的极大关注。数字技术也被用于增加公民参与(Chen et al.,2012),并动员人们解决当地问题(Farnham et al.,2015)。数字和社交技术也可以促进社区参与,包括增加社会资本和联系(Hampton&Wellman,2003;卡瓦诺和帕特森,2001年)。然而,这些积极的结果很少惠及有色人种社区,尤其是年轻人。邻里移动应用程序有时会因种族貌相而造成伤害。边缘化社区的居民也受到数字鸿沟的影响(Nielson,2006),低收入青年面临公民机会差距(Conner&Slattery,2014)。数字技术在社会工作中的使用也有所增加,包括网站、手机和旨在了解社会问题和制定干预措施的虚拟现实程序(Chan&Holosko,2016)。在评估和干预直接社会工作实践中使用数字技术,带来了更有针对性的服务,提供了即时反馈的机会,并允许社会工作者为以前无法获得服务的个人提供服务(Bender等人,2014;Berzin等人,2015;Ramsey和Montgomery,2014)。尽管有希望使用数字技术来改善社会工作实践,但人们对设计用于社区社会工作干预的移动和在线技术的重视程度较低,尤其是让年轻人参与进来(Chan&Holosko,2016)。作为回应,教员们,

ABSTRACT Understanding Twitter by individuals and organizations to raise awareness and give voice to the disability community provides important insight into digital discourse around disability. This study examines #disability tweets shared during National Disability Employment Awareness Month in October 2018. Sourced and cleaned, English language tweets (n = 12,963) were analyzed through a mixed-methods approach. As the title of this paper, a tweet from our dataset, suggests, Twitter discourse reflects disability activism and culture as it exists globally. This work highlights important methodological considerations for differentiating the ways individuals and organizations utilize Twitter and highlights the importance of qualitative analysis in this regard.

ABSTRACT Participative research partnerships are a relevant approach for researchers and professionals in planning and architecture as well as for Indigenous communities developing projects coherent with Indigenous planning practices. Yet, research partnerships generally suffer from a lack of theoretical foundations. This scoping review connects relationality – a founding ontological concept in the Indigenous world – to the importance of relational dynamics in partnership projects. I suggest that the coming together of researchers, professionals, and communities occurs in a partnership space, a space of relationality in Indigenous contexts. Partnership authenticity allows for the evaluation of research partnership processes by integrating their factors of success or failure.
