In Part Two we focus on “Reflections on Past and Present: Addressing Racism from Within.” While as a profession we have promoted the values of the dignity and worth of all, we have not always lived up to these values and sometimes have been on the wrong side of history in promoting social justice. In our Part Two symposium we will hear form four panels who will address the experiences of women of color in enduring and confronting racism, social work education’s accomplishments as well as missed opportunities in combatting racism in practice and theory, uprooting whiteness through calling out racism and transforming practice through resistance. These four panels touch on contemporary issues that are critical to our understanding of the profession and our role as change agents.
