“They Think That They Know Your Story”: Intersecting Discrimination and Interpersonal Barriers in Social Services for Immigrant Women of African Descent
Immigrant women of African descent (IWAD) navigate oppression rooted in anti-Black racism, sexism, and nativism. While discrimination in health care is documented, the interpersonal barriers IWAD encounter within social and human service agencies remain underexplored. Consequently, this qualitative study aimed to explore these barriers through an intersectional lens, specifically examining how identity-based discrimination impacts interactions wi…
Between the Academy and Us: A Collaborative Account of Black Women's Experiences Navigating White Supremacy in Academia
In this paper, we, three Black women academics, share some of our experiences navigating the euro-centered, hierarchical system in academia, which Patricia Hill Collins aptly identified as the eurocentric knowledge validation process. This insidious process seeks to undermine the contributions of Black feminist thought and to discredit the knowledge and expertise of Black scholars. What began as anger over a journal reviewer's comments evolved in…
Processes Underlying Black American Emerging Adults' Mental Health: Examining the Roles of Mental Health Literacy, Ethnic-Racial Identity, and Self-Care
The present study examined whether mental health literacy (MHL) informed self-care and, in turn, mental health among Black emerging adults. Various components of ethnic-racial identity (ERI), including exploration, resolution, affirmation, and centrality, were tested as moderators of the associations between MHL and self-care. Participants were 166 Black American emerging adults ( Mage = 19.48, SD = .74). Findings indicated that among individuals…
“A ray of light in the chaos”: Relationships between companion animals and LGBTQ+ emerging adults during the Covid-19 pandemic
There is evidence that pet owners experienced benefits during the COVID-19 pandemic and also struggled with pet-related stressors. Notably, almost all of these studies were conducted with predominantly cisgender and heterosexual samples. This is problematic, as evidence suggests that individuals who belong to marginalized groups, such as LGBTQ+ emerging adults, have been disproportionately affected by stressors associated with the pandemic. This …
Black College Students’ Ethnic Identity and Academic Achievement: Examining Mental Health and Racial Discrimination as Moderators
The purpose of the current study was to test the role that components of ethnic identity (i.e., exploration and resolution) play in academic achievement, and to examine mental health, racial discrimination, and gender as moderators of these associations among Black college students. Participants included 341 college students who identified as a Black/African American female or male ( M age = 18.4; SD = .34), and completed measures of ethnic ident…
Black M/Otherhood: A Content Analysis Exploring How Black Mothers Are Represented in Social Work Literature
The vast range of experiences of Black mothers are not adequately captured in social work scholarship. Motivated by observations made by a 2000 article written by Greif, Hrabowski, and Maton which noted that much of social work literature on Black mothers focused on the negative, this paper describes a content analysis examining how Black mothers are represented in social work literature. The authors conducted a search in Social Work Abstracts fo…

Is Social Work Still Racist? A Content Analysis of Recent Literature
Addressing systems of oppression that disproportionately affect racial and ethnic minoritized groups appears to be of marginal interest in social work's professional literature. This article describes the content analysis of articles on Asian Pacific Islander (API) Americans, African Americans, Latinx or Hispanic Americans, and Native or Indigenous Americans in four major social work journals published between 2005 and 2015. (The analysis serves …
