This workshop is part of Sussex Social Change Hub 2024 CPD program. In this session we will look at ‘post-George Floyd murder’ research on race and racism in social work and what it tells about current social work practice with Black, Asian and related mixed minoritised racial and ethnic identities. We will place particular focus on how systemic racism in children’s social care, including transracial-adoption, can contribute to race-based trauma.
