Season 4, episode 4: Race & Racism in your practice training or is your placement diverse, inclusive, both or neither?
In this episode, we look at race and explore the experience of race and racism in social work placement.
Thinking about Cultural Competence and the experience of working with those you share the same culture with: could familiarity help in relationship building or could it be an obstacle?
Our guests are:
Shantel Thomas is an experienced SW practitioner, Clinical Professional & Course Lead @ Tavistock & Portman NHS Foundation, and founder of the Anti-Racist Movement (A.R.M.)
Thedini Liyanage is a 2nd year MSc social work student from Brunel University.
Chito Okeke is a 1st year MSc social work student at Brunel University.
An interesting read from an article in the Community Care Newsletter suggests that ‘one in 10 social workers encountered racism from workmates at least five times, while almost 20% reported having increased anxiety as a result of their experiences, finds a poll of almost 2,000 practitioners.’ https://www.communitycare.co.uk/2022/03/18/one-third-of-social-workers-faced-racism-from-colleagues-or-managers-in-past-year-finds-survey/
