Using critical race theory as a conceptual framework, the text analyzes all levels of racism: personal, professional, institutional, and cultural. Integrating theory, research, and practice, racism is linked to other forms of oppression with an emphasis on how helping professionals can respond. Tips on how to facilitate racial dialogues are provided. Early chapters map out the contours of racism and later chapters emphasize how to dismantle it. Readers appreciate the book's sensitive approach to this difficult topic. Examples and exercises encourage insight into understanding racism, and insightful analyses offer strategies, solutions, and hope. Readers learn to respond to racism in all contexts including working with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities. -- Provided by publisher.RacismUnited StatesHuman servicesMoral and ethical aspectsSocial serviceMoral and ethical aspectsUnited StatesRace relationsElectronic books.RacismHuman servicesMoral and ethical aspects.Social serviceMoral and ethical aspects.Miller Joshua(Joshua L.),1025643Garran Ann MarieMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910162737203321Racism in the United States2463209UNINA
