Moreover, our profession simultaneously practices within racist systems and works to dismantle them. In the wake of a fervent #BlackLivesMatter movement and persistent racial disparities in key social welfare institutions, these paradoxes have come to the forefront of discussion in academic and practice circles. This unique moment presents an opportunity to interrogate our profession’s relationship to White supremacy and racial justice in order to reimagine an anti-racist future. We hope you’ll join us for a four-part series of virtual symposia that will address these themes. Symposium events will occur throughout the academic year and will address different aspects of our past, present, and future. This portion of the symposium features: 1. Welcome to the Symposium: Laura S. Abrams, Sandra Crewe, Alan Dettlaff, James Herbert Williams 2. Race-Making Through The Child Welfare And Juvenile Courts: Jenny Jones, Christin D. Haynes; Joan Blakely, Marva Lewis, & Rae Stevenson; Tanya Smith Brice 3.
