This book presents an expansive collection of case studies focused on Critical Race Theory (CRT), offering insights into understanding racial oppression and its societal impacts. Featuring contributions from expert practitioner-scholars, chapters introduce core tenets of CRT and explore how CRT can be applied across a range of different contexts, providing practical examples of how CRT can be implemented into the curriculum. By dividing its case studies at the micro, mezzo, and macro level, the text demonstrates how CRT is relevant for different levels of social work practice and contributes to ongoing movements to apply anti-oppressive approach into all areas of social work. The first book of its kind, this is an essential resource for anyone seeking to develop their knowledge and explore how CRT can be used to enhance social work practice across a range of different settings.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'This book is a hands-on learning tool that can be utilized throughout the social work curriculum and in professional training. The descriptions of CRT and its manifestations in society are relevant and powerful. The case study approach makes vivid the ways in which racism and intersectionality manifest in service delivery.' Deana F. Morrow, Director and Professor, School of Social Work, West Virginia University, USA
