Abstract

This article explores the experiences of Black newly qualified social workers and student social workers in England. Drawing on related studies that have begun to outline the challenges faced by Global Ethnic Majority social workers in the UK, the article highlights that this is both an important and under-researched area. The article provides a much-needed contribution to understanding the unique experiences of Black social workers through a thematic analysis of interviews with Black social workers, providing an opportunity for social work colleagues, managers, educators, and academics to understand the challenges and obstacles that these social workers face. The research reveals a dire situation in which Black social workers are hindered by racial stereotyping, discrimination, and invisibility. Black social worker voices also highlight suggestions for best practice and guidance for the social work sector about how to improve. By centering these underrepresented voices, this article provides an opportunity to acknowledge and begin to rectify the barriers and challenges that Black social workers face.

了解并改善英格兰黑人社会工作者和学生的经历
本文探讨了英国黑人新近获得资格的社会工作者和学生社会工作者的经历。相关研究已开始概述英国全球少数族裔社会工作者所面临的挑战,文章借鉴这些研究,强调这是一个重要但研究不足的领域。文章通过对黑人社工访谈的主题分析,为了解黑人社工的独特经历做出了急需的贡献,为社会工作同行、管理人员、教育工作者和学者提供了了解这些社工所面临的挑战和障碍的机会。研究揭示了黑人社会工作者因种族成见、歧视和隐形而受到阻碍的严峻形势。黑人社工的声音还突出了对最佳实践的建议和对社会工作领域如何改进的指导。通过关注这些代表性不足的声音,本文提供了一个机会来承认并开始纠正黑人社会工作者面临的障碍和挑战。
