Description
2- to 3-page paper. Describe the impact of discrimination on individuals of multiracial backgrounds. Describe the impact of biracial/multiracial or multiethnic distinction on our society. Justify your response. How do these distinctions relate to social work practice with individuals, families, groups, and communities? Be sure to use APA formatting and references from the Learning Resources and two additional peer-reviewed resources from the Walden library about the discrimination against biracial and multiracial individuals.
Dalmage (2013) writes, “Parents and teachers should be aware of the
unique forms of discrimination faced by multiracial children and the White
supremacist system in which discrimination flourishes” (p. 101). As social
workers, we should be aware of our own understanding of what it means to
be multiracial in society. This awareness includes a review of our own
potential biases that might exist. We need to challenge our own personal
ideas about how we categorize individuals and those assumptions that
follow along with those categories. Rather, we must respect our client’s
experience as a multiracial person in the world, beginning with asking him
or her how they would define themselves when completing an intake or
assessment form. Further, a social worker must be aware of the many
forms of racism and prejudice a person with a multiracial background might
experience. As Dalmage discusses, judgment comes from many sides with
different intentions and expectations. Being aware of the particular forms of
racism that a person who is multiracial will experience will give you the
ability to do your best to understand their experience and empathize
