The events of September 11th have brought terrorism into the consciousness and discourse of everyone. This traumatic national and international experience has created a challenging context for social work practice. As we continue our commitment to educating clinical social workers to work with a diverse population, we are aware that throughout history people who have experienced oppression due to race, religion, sexual orientation, and social class, among other forms of oppression, have experienced trauma as a result of targeted violence and discrimination.
As we think about September 11th, current concerns about potential acts of terrorism and the differential impact of these experiences on those who have been historically oppressed are ongoing concerns for the SSW. What are the implications for our curriculum, our learning community and our practice?
