White and Asian respondents were more likely to support the mask mandates over Black respondents. Asian respondents were less likely to participate in public protests over white respondents. Our findings offer a model for social workers to understand how race, political participation and COVID-19 intersect to create racially just responses to health and justice matters.","PeriodicalId":45824,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnic & Cultural Diversity in Social Work","volume":"31 1","pages":"280 - 291"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46899131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article integrates Canadian postcolonialism, a critique of Canadian multiculturalism, and a framework of intergroup prejudice to conceptualize the covert anti-Asian racism that is entrenched in Canadian society. How COVID-19 exposes and “legitimizes” anti-Asian racism is further analyzed and included in this conceptualization. This conceptualization also includes social workers’ leading roles in combating anti-Asian racism through reforming and integrating client interventions, cultural policy, social context, and offers directions that can guide future social work research and practice in improving social justice during this crisis.","PeriodicalId":45824,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnic & Cultural Diversity in Social Work","volume":"31 1","pages":"302 - 312"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59959545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Black women remain overrepresented in essential positions and are on the frontlines of two pandemics: COVID-19 and racism. Using a phenomenological research design, we conducted semi-structured interviews to examine the experiences of 22 Black women essential workers navigating these dual pandemics. Salient themes of these experiences included: desire to and fear of protest; navigating extreme emotions; mixed levels of understanding from colleagues; and a rise in blatantly racist confrontations in the workplace. Further reflection is needed to understand the complex dynamics these women faced.","PeriodicalId":45824,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnic & Cultural Diversity in Social Work","volume":"31 1","pages":"263 - 274"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48217813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While these two pandemics appear to be different in nature, both pandemics attest to the fact that systemic racism continues to be a grand challenge in our society. It is appalling to see how COVID-19 differentially affects communities and people of color as well as socially disadvantaged groups. Systemic racism and police brutality are related to the unacceptable violation of human rights of diverse groups in the US and globally. The present moment provides distinct challenges and opportunities for the promise of the social work profession. Social work has long distinguished itself as a profession ethically bound to stand for social justice. Generations of emerging social workers matriculate in accredited social work programs to uphold this value in service to and with those populations regulated to the margins who have disproportionately suffered from the dual pandemics of COVID-19 and police violence. With years of experience as social work researchers and educators, the editorial board views the special issue as representing the profession’s values of confronting systemic racism. The articles are timely from social work scholars and educators in a time where the threat, at least in one state of the proposed legislation would fire tenured faculty for teaching tenets of critical race theory. Knowledge becomes politicized in the context of the dual pandemics. There has been intense tension across state legislation and schools on whether discrimination and bias should be addressed in education. Many states across the United States have proposed bills to control CRT in schools: https://www.edweek.org/ policy-politics/map-where-critical-race-theory-is-under-attack/2021/06. Refusing to be deterred, the authors of special issue articles offer intellectually sound examination, conceptualization, and rigor in providing viable, socially just, responsive paths forward. This Special Issue includes articles that focus on anti-racist pedagogy in social work education, conceptual discussion contributing to refining a shared understanding of constructs relevant to anti-racist social work, and micro, mezzo, and macro social work practice that aims to prevent or eliminate the negative impact of racism as well as promote racial justice, equity, and inclusion among individuals, families, groups, organizations, or communities. Mental, physical health, and safety should not be considered utopian values. nor dignity and grace of all individuals.","PeriodicalId":45824,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnic & Cultural Diversity in Social Work","volume":"31 1","pages":"135 - 138"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49357148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we discuss this demand for migrant labor and implications for social work. We argue that a labor-focused framework as critical perspective would complement the rights-based, participatory frameworks that inform social work scholarship and practice with immigrants, together accounting for systemic racism, global and national inequality, and discrimination embedded in immigration and social policies and forms of practice. In the first place, by recognizing how non-immigrants and immigrants are inextricably linked through structural means of production and consumption, social workers would develop deeper empathy toward immigrant clients and communities, leading to interactions that are empowering and affirming, and thus effective. Direct practice interventions would be richly informed, as practitioners account for immigrants’ work environment, such as difficult work conditions, low wages and lack of benefits, that often impact clients and families. A labor-focused perspective also points to areas of social work advocacy and meso/macro practice, those focusing on workers’ rights and immigration policy.","PeriodicalId":45824,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnic & Cultural Diversity in Social Work","volume":"31 1","pages":"275 - 279"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47649398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We argue that self-determination in collective cultures may involve inclusivity beyond individual clients. Beneficence is culturally defined and evidence-based practices proven effective for some clientele have to be considered together with clients. For non-maleficence, practitioners need to reduce biases and microaggressions to avoid harming clients. Finally, justice is attainable when antiracist approaches are in place and those marginalized have equitable access to culturally-sensitive services.","PeriodicalId":45824,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnic & Cultural Diversity in Social Work","volume":"31 1","pages":"248 - 262"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44493964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
