  • "Your clients are affected by racism, classism and sexism. So as a clinical social worker you can't ignore those intersecting identities."
    Leigh-Anne Francis, an assistant professor with a dual appointment in the departments of African American Studies and Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies at The College of New Jersey, presented the Smith College School for Social Work 2017 Anti-Racism Lecture, Jane Crow (In)Justice: African American Women, Mass Incarceration, and the Mainstreaming of White Supremacy (A History of the Present). Before her talk, Francis spoke to us about the historical, convergent forces of ideological and institutional racism, classism, sexism, and carceral state violence impacting the individuals and communities social workers encounter in the field.

    This video speaks to many issues of concern within our society. It points out positionality and the power of systems as it relates to individuals and families. Good video.

    Well said doctor. I thought and still thinking of becoming an MSW. I am a master level human service worker. You make the career field much more appealing LCSW.

    I resonate so strongly with this video.
    As a white male in my MSW year 2, I feel i'm learning so much about my white privilege etc.
    Great video, spread the message of intersectionality.

    This is a great video. I think that other people should watch it regardless if SW is their career choice. I am a undergrad student at Ohio Wesleyan University, majoring in sociology/anthropolgy. I'd like to recommend a great book called "Unequal Childhoods" by Annette Lareau. When helping to addres anyone his has an issue, I also think it is important to consider social stratification. Also you can look at C. Wright Mills to learn more about the hindrance of social structures and institutions. Great video!
