Maybe I Shouldn’t Talk’
Mental health ‘recovery narratives’ are increasingly used within teaching, learning and practice environments. The mainstreaming of their use has been critiqued by scholars and activists as a co-option of lived experience for organisational purposes. But how people report their experiences of telling their stories has not been investigated at scale. We present accounts from 71 people with lived experience of multiple inequalities of telling their…

"Patterson's Analysis Fuels "The Blame Game
Ensuring Inequality
This book expands and updates the nuanced historical perspective used in the first edition to understand African American family patterns. The result is a narrative that challenges conventional understanding of the continuing plight of African American families. The book traces the evolution of the black family from slavery to the present, showing the cumulative effects of centuries of historical change. Beginning with a richly researched account…
World War II and Its Aftermath
The second part of the Great Migration out of the south was even larger than the first and resulted in the emergence of African Americans as a distinctly urban people. This chapter chronicles the stunted economic incorporation of African Americans into northern cities and the emergence of the civil rights movement. This chapter highlights both the opportunities created by the labor shortages of the war and the economic vulnerability in its afterm…
Slavery
This chapter assesses arguments about the impact of slavery on the development of a distinctive African American culture. Specifically, historical arguments about the impact of slavery on contemporary marriage and family practices are presented and evaluated. Central debates, then, as now, revolve around the degree to which culture as opposed to social conditions determines family behavior. The chapter concludes by pointing out that there was div…
Correlates of Marital Status among African American Mothers in Chicago Neighborhoods of Concentrated Poverty
Donna L. Franklin, Susan E. Smith, William E. P. McMiller, Correlates of Marital Status among African American Mothers in Chicago Neighborhoods of Concentrated Poverty, Journal of Marriage and Family, Vol. 57, No. 1 (Feb., 1995), pp. 141-152
Feminization of Poverty and African-American Families
The term feminization of poverty was coined to capture the increasing rates of poverty among mother-only families. More recently, it has been used to draw attention to the failure of men to provide support for their former wives by emphasizing the enforcement of child-support legislation. The focus on this legislation has overlooked the needs of the most vulnerable families. By using the case of African-American families, this article presents a …
The Cycles of Social Work Practice
The social work profession has vascillated between addressing two different priorities during its history: personal troubles and public issues. The focus on personal troubles emphasizes the private interests, rehabilitation, and self-actualization needs of individuals. Public issues refers to collective needs, social action, and social reform. These riorities shaped the emergence of three distinct methods of social work practice-casework, groupwo…
Race, class, and adolescent pregnancy
The U.S. has one of the highest rates of adolescent pregnancy and childbearing in the industrialized world--and the highest rates in the U.S. are found among low-income black adolescents. This paper addresses the problem via a four-part theoretical framework based on an ecological developmental model. Variables that contribute to adolescent pregnancy in the black community are examined at the individual, family, sociocultural, and social structur…
Mary Richmond and Jane Addams
Mary Richmond and Jane Addams are two of the most influential figures in the history of the social work profession. This paper explores the influence that these women had on the paradigm shift in the profession from moral certainty to rational inquiry. A review of Richmond and Addams's contributions and achievements throws a different light on the historical development of the profession. The impact of their work on ideological tensions that exis…
Differential Clinical Assessments
The clinical assessment or "clinical judgment" of clients has historically served as a guide for the interventions of social work practitioners. Yet, despite the critical importance of such judgments, very little is known about how certain variables influence the clinical judgment process. This study explored the nature of the interaction between practitioner variables associated with differential judgments and the client variables of class and r…
