a critical examination of race, racism, and intersectionality as it pertains to a particular BIPOC community and a specific issue that that community faces

In this assignment, students will write a critical examination of race, racism, and

intersectionality as it pertains to a particular BIPOC community and a specific issue that that community faces that they may be interested in working with or learning more about. These intersectional forms of oppression may include age, class, color, culture, disability and ability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity and expression, immigration status, marital

status, political ideology, race, religion/spirituality, sex, sexual orientation, and tribal

sovereign status that may impact the population in the experience of this issue/problem. STUDENTS SHOULD NOT make communities of color writ large as the community of interest. STUDENTS SHOULD CHOOSE a specific racial/ethnic community where one needs to apply intersectionality (e.g., IPV among LGBT Indigenous population; Black girls and the school-to-prison pipeline; end-of-life care for Laotian refugees). Students will discuss a specific theoretical framework through which to further explore the issue and identify practice

implications for social work practice. Students should consider specific individual action

plans, policy implications, and the application of social work values and ethics. Ultimately the paper needs to show us how the intersectional nature of the communities’ identities produces unique experiences of racism and ways to disrupt it. The paper should include the following sections and components: Background: This section will include a clear statement of the population, which must focus on intersectional BIPOC community and the topic (i.e., the specific issue the community being researched is facing), which is the focus of the paper. This section should include an overview of the population and the area of practice. This section should be no more than one or two brief paragraphs. The intention is for students to spend more time focusing on the following sections. Levels of Oppression: In this section, the student should explore racism and oppression at the internalized, interpersonal, institutional, and cultural levels. Additionally, students should use an intersectional framework to discuss at least one other form of oppression identified above that is important to consider with the population/practice area. Students should discuss the experience of racism and another form of oppression and should be specific and outline the potential issues

that the student, as a social worker, should be aware of in practice. *If you would like to

discuss additional theoretical frameworks that illustrates your argument, you may

introduce it here. Some examples may be critical race theory, racial identity development, post-traumatic slave syndrome, or white racial framework.

Levels of Practice: In this section the student should analyze how they can address the

issue identified in this paper at one of the three levels of social work practice: micro, mezzo, or macro. Specifically, students should draw on how cultural humility, anti-racist social work practice, and specific social policies can be used to provide services to the

population of interest while simultaneously seeking to identify ways to dismantle racism and other forms of oppression.Critical Self-Reflection: In this section, the students should

reflect on their growth and future opportunities for growth as it relates to racial identity exploration, stereotypes, and/or biases. The section should clarify why the student chose their particular population and topic to write about. Students should also discuss a specific concept from class and reading that they believe will impact their future practice and in what ways. Students should review specific application of social work values, ethics, and the standards of cultural competence in social work practice across difference. This is an

opportunity for students to reflect on their own individual growth and change over the semester, specifically as it relates to their area of future practice. This paper should be 6–8 pages long, double-spaced, using APA formatting and citation guidelines (7th edition). You

should incorporate at least six references that are relevant to your analysis and should

include articles and research from both inside (at least three) and outside of the course

syllabus. Papers should be submitted on the Assignment Uploads and Grading Pages to

the Digital.
